Put this into the Thisworkbook Excel object
VBA via Alt F11 / Ctrl R

Private Sub Workbook_Open()
Sheets(1).Activate
End Sub

Provided Sheet1 (your sheet Name on the Tab)
is sheet1 it will activate Sheet1 upon openning,
even if you or someone else changes the name to
something else.

Leave the code the same and it should still work
as long as the sheet code refers to Sheet1
ie. if you look @ the sheet name in the project
explorer you will should see Sheet1(Menu).
If you do then the code should work as given.
