Excel anchores shapes against top-left and buttom-right cells:
col1 is the column (0 based) of the first cell
col2 is the column (0 based) of the second cell.
row1  is the row (0 based) of the first cell.
row2 is  the row (0 based) of the second cell.

dx1 and dx2 are horizontal offsets within the first and second cells
in units of 1/1024 of the cell width. For example,  dx1=256  means
that that the anchor is shifted to the 25% of the width of the first
cell (256/1024 = 25%).

dy1 and dy2 are vertical offsets  within the first and second cells in
units of 1/256 of the row height. For example,  dy1=128  means that
the anchor is shifted by 50% of the row height of the top cell.
