Default Sheet selection help

HI
Hope that someone can help. The following looks up a field in workbook 1,
then searches workbook 2 for that field. Then returns the price from the
adjacent cell back to workbook 1.

My problem is that while it does find the correct sheet/cell. When it
ruturns that value is uses the correct cell ref, but selects from the sheet
that the workbook was last saved from, not the sheet the item was found on.

Can anyone advise what I need to do to get it to select from the correct
sheet.


The plan is that it will finally run through the complete item list in
workbook 1, but just now it is set to look at cell A5 only


Thanks

-------------------------------------------
Sub Findinworkbook()
Dim rng As Range, sh As Worksheet
Dim vTarget As Variant, fAddr As String, sAddr As String, fDesc As String

Dim lookfor As String
Dim selectcell As String

sAddr = "A5"

lookfor = Range(sAddr).Value

Workbooks.Open ("workbook 2")


vTarget = lookfor
For Each sh In ActiveWorkbook.Worksheets


With sh.Cells
Set rng = .Find(vTarget, LookIn:=xlValues, lookat:=xlWhole,
searchorder:=xlByRows, searchdirection:=xlNext, MatchCase:=False)
If Not rng Is Nothing Then
fAddr = rng.Address



Do

Range(rng.Address).Select
ActiveCell.Offset(rowoffset:=0, columnoffset:=1).Activate
Selection.Copy
Workbooks("workbook 1").Activate
Range(sAddr).Select
ActiveCell.Offset(rowoffset:=0, columnoffset:=2).Activate
ActiveSheet.Paste
Set rng = .FindNext(rng)
Loop While rng.Address < fAddr
End If
End With
Next sh

End Sub
