Chip, I am not sure I follow. I've pasted my code to give a better
understanding of what I want to do. How would I integrate your suggestion to
make it work?

Workbooks("WB1").Activate
Sheets("Sheet1").Activate
Range("K20").Copy

Workbooks("Unknown Name").Activate

' This is where I am getting hung up. Given that I don't know what the
name of the workbook will be (it is always changing), I don't know how to
activate it so that I can toggle between the two workbooks

Sheets("Sheets1").Activate
Range("K20").Select
Selection.PasteSpecial Paste:=xlValues, Operation:=xlNone, SkipBlanks:= _
False, Transpose:=False

Workbooks("WB1").Activate
Sheets("Sheet1").Activate
Range("A13").Copy

This process will continue on as I copy and paste a number of cells from one
workbook to another.

If you have only WB1 and one other (visible) workbook open, you can use code
like

Dim WB1 As Workbook
Dim WB As Workbook
For Each WB In Workbooks
If WB.Windows(1).Visible = True Then
If WB.Name < ThisWorkbook.Name Then
Set WB1 = WB
Exit For
End If
End If
Next WB

Debug.Print WB.Name

I am trying to use some code to copy and paste a variety of cells from a
master workbook ("WB1", which contains the code) to a second WB ("WB2").
The
name of WB1 is fixed and will not change. However, WB2 will not always
have
the same filename. I would generally only be doing this one workbook at a
time, i.e. I will have WB1 open along with WB2, and then run the code. Is
there a way using code to reference/activate WB2 while I am in WB1 without
having to use the filename of WB2 (it will not always be the same)?
Thanks.
