Cell selection

If I want to select a range of cells using

 Range("A3","A22").Select

it works OK.
How do I achieve the same result using

Cells(3,1,22,1).Select

the 3 & 22 being the range of rows and the 1 being column A.
I cant get it to work at all.
Have also tried

Cells(3,1:22,1).Select

but no joy.
Thanx in advance
Pete
