Default Open a file

Hello

I would like to copy and paste info from one workbook to another.
However i want to be able to choose the file from where i am going to copy
the values.
the problem is that the file could be in any subdirectory (it's not one file
there are many files
and i want to be able to choose its time which one i am going to use). If i
achieve to have both files open
(the one that i will copy the values and the one i will paste(this is
constant)) then i know the code
But i want you to help me how to open any file i want to copy values

Sub Macro4()
ChDir "E:\Folder1\Folder 2\Workbook1.xls"
Workbooks.Open Filename:= _
"E:\Folder1\Folder 2\Workbook1.xls"
Windows("New Model_1j.xls").Activate
Range("A1").Select
End Sub

Workbook1 (can be in any subdirectory but it has the same name ) = copy
values
New Model (same every time) = paste values

I record a macro how to open a file but i have to write a secific file

Is it possible t choose each time what to use?

Thanks in advance
