Filter a Pivot table based on cell in another workbook

Senerio

I am creating report that copies cells from a "read only" pivot table and paste them to a different worksheet. I need the "year" field in the pivot table to only show the year that the user imputs into a cell.

This is the code that I have now:

Vyear = ActiveSheet.Range("H17")

Windows("SCTS SGA Analysis File SCTS Rollup.xls").Activate
    Sheets("sheet1").Activate

For Each PivotYear In ActiveSheet.PivotTables("PivotTable1").PivotField("Year").PivotItems()
       
        If PivotYear = Vyear Then
            With ActiveSheet.PivotTables("PivotTable1").PivotFields("Year")
                .PivotItems(PivotYear).Visible = True
            End With
    
        Else
            
            With ActiveSheet.PivotTables("PivotTable1").PivotFields("Year")
                .PivotItems(PivotYear).Visible = False
            End With
        End If
   Next

When I recorded he macro and manually choose 2011 this is what appeared

    Windows("SCTS SGA Analysis File SCTS Rollup.xls").Activate
    ActiveSheet.PivotTables("PivotTable1").PivotFields("Year").CurrentPage = _
        "(All)"
    With ActiveSheet.PivotTables("PivotTable1").PivotFields("Year")
        .PivotItems("(blank)").Visible = False
        .PivotItems("2008").Visible = False
        .PivotItems("2009").Visible = False
        .PivotItems("2010").Visible = False
        .PivotItems("2011").Visible = True
        .PivotItems("2012").Visible = False
    End With
    ActiveSheet.PivotTables("PivotTable1").PivotFields("Year"). _
        EnableMultiplePageItems = True

Unfortunately, I cannot post the workbooks because their content cannot be shared

HI nicknorth34, please re-read the forum rules located here and wrap your code in code tags as per Rule #3. Once you do that, someone will be able to help you.
