Macro to switch to previous workbook, copy data, and go back to original wkb and paste

**rubenidas** · 11-24-2014, 03:03 PM

Hi,
I'm trying to figure out a macro to jump from the workbook I am in to another one and copy data, go back to original and paste data. FYI, these workbooks are in two separate sessions of excel and also the workbook that i want it to jump to an copy data from changes each time.

Below is my code and i have issues when it gets thisworkbook.activate. I need to tell it to go back to the orginal workbook (which is the one that changes each time FYI)
