Assume typos in 'wookbooks("Hrining Plan.xls")' were created for our
benefit. Is hirename a hidden workbook? Is it an add-in?

You can skip all the activating and deactivating:

Workbooks.Open ramppath & "\" & rampName
Workbooks.Open hirePath & "\" & hirename

Dim fromdate As Variant
fromdate = Workbooks("Ramp Plan
Macro.xls").Sheets("Macro").Range("c13").Value
' note: Worksheets is better in most cases than Sheets (IntelliSense,
etc.)

Dim myCell As Range
Set myCell = Windows(hirename).Sheets("C LLC").Range("A2")
Do Until myCell.Value = fromdate
Set myCell = myCell.Offset(1, 0)
Loop
Set myCell = myCell.Offset(0, 5)

Sub RamPlan()

Workbooks("Ramp Plan Macro.xls").Activate
Sheets("Macro").Select

Dim hirePath As String
Dim ramppath As String
Dim hirename As String
Dim rampName As String

hirePath = Range("c8").Value
ramppath = Range("c9").Value
hirename = Range("c10").Value
rampName = Range("c11").Value


Workbooks.Open ramppath & "\" & rampName
Workbooks.Open hirePath & "\" & hirename

Workbooks("Ramp Plan Macro.xls").Activate
Sheets("Macro").Select

Dim fromdate As Variant
fromdate = Range("c13").Value

Windows(hirename).Activate
Sheets("C LLC").Select
Range("A2").Select

Do Until Selection.Value = fromdate
Selection.Offset(1, 0).Select
Loop
Selection.Offset(0, 5).Select

End Sub
