I am having some trouble writing a code for a macro that moves data between documents.

The document that I transfer data from is an excel extract from a survey, so everytime I have to run the macro, it is with a new document with a new name.

I can get so far as to move the first cell information into the other specified workbook, but I cannot get the macro to return to the the first document (the one where the name changes with every use).

Any suggestions?

How to fill five years of quarters?
Type 1Q-2023 in a cell. Grab the fill handle and drag down or right. After 4Q-2023, Excel will jump to 1Q-2024. Dash can be any character.
you will want to assign the file name to a variable, for example

WName = ActiveWorkbook.Name
