Can someone tell me why I get the error: "Select Method of Range Class Failed"

Code:
Sub MICROPHARAOHVIEW()
    Application.ActiveWorkbook.Sheets("MICROPHARAOH").Cells(1, 26).Select
End Sub
 

Excel Facts

Which came first: VisiCalc or Lotus 1-2-3?
Dan Bricklin and Bob Frankston debuted VisiCalc in 1979 as a Visible Calculator. Lotus 1-2-3 debuted in the early 1980's, from Mitch Kapor.
Its because you cant select a cell that isnt on the activesheet. The sheet in question will not be the activesheet hence the error.
