How do I call up a line of code that references a cell/range in theactive workbook workbook where I

[Lav]

E.g. The macro is in workbook1.xls

I wish to copy cell B2

So Activeworkbook.Select

Dim Workbook1

Set Workbook1 = Workbooks.Add (or is it Open?)("C:Workbook1.xls")

Workbook1.Activate

Range("B2").Copy

?

The ActiveWorkbook object references the workbook that is presently
active in Excel. It may or may not be the workbook that contains the
currently executing code. The ThisWorkbook object references the
workbook that contains the executing code, regardless of what workbook
happens to be active in Excel.

Workbooks.Add (or is it Open?)("C:Workbook1.xls")

The Add method is used to create a new workbook. The Open method is
used to open an existing workbook.
