Default switching between workbooks

Well, in that case, try:

Workbooks("DestWkbk").Activate

Oops, sorry.
What I meant was it's erroring out on the line
Workbooks(DestWkbk).Activate

I am guessing that somewhere you have assigned SourceWkbk as a variable for
the actual name of the workbook, but in this macro you are using quotation
marks to enclose it as a string file name.

Why is the following code not allowing me to switch between workbooks?
I get a Run-time error '13':
Type mismatch

Workbooks(SourceWkbk).Activate

Sub Copy_WOs ()

Dim DestWkbk As Workbook

If Range("I2") = "" Then
MsgBox "Enter Person Reporting in Cell I2"

Else
MsgBox "Person Reporting name mispelled (or is in all caps)"
Exit Sub
End If

Workbooks("SourceWkbk.xls").Activate
Range("F6:F12").Copy
Workbooks(DestWkbk).Activate
Range("D:7").Select
Activesheet.Paste

End Sub
