Set wb2 = Workbooks("LESTER, BRENDA.xls")


how do I replace the above code to set wb2 as the active sheet?

Try...

Windows(wb2).Activate

Matthew,

Try the following:

Dim Wks As Worksheet
Set Wks = ActiveSheet

(Note that if you don't specifically state the qualifing hierarchy, Excel
will build the hierarchy for you. For example, "Set Wks = ActiveSheet" will
be appended to be ActiveWorkbook.ActiveSheet, whereas something like "Set Wks
= Workbooks("test.xlsx").Worksheets(2)" will reference a specific worksheet
from a specific workbook, regardless of which workbook is currently active).

Best,

Matthew Herbert
