VBA in Excel to select a cell on other tab

Trying to update multi PivotTables by changing the date on another sheet. I开发者_StackOverflow can do this if I use a range on the same sheet by using

ActiveSheet.PivotTables("PVT1").PivotFields("Month").CurrentPage = _
    "11/1/2010"

and change it to

ActiveSheet.PivotTables("PVT1").PivotFields("Month").CurrentPage = _
    Range("C1").Text

but I can not get the right string to add to the range for Sheets("Sheet2").Range("C1").Text

Just DIM's the location and called it from there. It worked so I'm happy. Thanks for looking
