Question about a Microchip instruction

Fiveohhh

I've been reading through the Microchip PIC18fxx2 data sheet and have a question about some of the wording for an instruction.

For the ADDWFC instruction it says that:

"if 'a' is 0, the Access Bank will be selected. If 'a' is 1, the BSR will not be overridden."

Does this mean that if a is '1' that the output will not be stored anywhere? My reasoning: if 'a' is 1 than the Access Bank will not be used, but the BSR will also not be overridden.

Sorry if this is rudimentary. I'm just starting an intro to PIC programming class and working on some homework.

Thanks in advance.
