Default referencing the activecell

Activecell is not a property of the worksheet, it is a property of the
window, so you only have one.

You will need to keep tags of where you are in each worksheet.

I'm stumped. I am wanting to copy information from cells in workbook A to
workbook B. I want to cycle through several rows but would rather not
bounce back and forth activating each WB. Is there a way to reference
the active cell in each workbook?

I tried setting a variable to the worksheet but it doesn't like it.

Set wb1 = ActiveWorkbook
Set ws1 = wb1.Worksheets(2)

Set wb2 = Workbooks.Open(strDir & strFile)
Set ws2 = wb.Worksheets(2)
ws1.Activecell = ws2.Activecell <---- This is the line I want to
use but this code doesn't work.

Thanks in advance.
