Assume I have the value of 1 in cell A1, 2 in B1, 3 in C1, 4 in A2, 5 in B2 and 6 in C2.

This is my code:

Code:
Dim Rng As Range


Set Rng = Range("A1:C1")

If I type:

Code:
Debug.Print Rng(1)

I get a value of 3, as expected.


However, why is it when I type:


Code:
Debug.Print Rng(4)


I get a value of 4.


I expected it to error because Rng is set to be the range A1 to C1 only.


Thanks
 

Excel Facts

Copy a format multiple times
Select a formatted range. Double-click the Format Painter (left side of Home tab). You can paste formatting multiple times. Esc to stop
Rng(4) is the same as Rng.Item(1,4) - See link below

Basically, it operates in the same way as Offset, so it can reference cells outside of the range.

I think Rng(4) is not the same as Rng.Item(1,4), it's the same as Rng.Item(4).
rng(3) is C1 then it will go down to A2, so rng(4) is A2 not D1.
