Is there a way to get a workbook to activate a certain worksheet, say Sheet1 "A1" after a set period of inactivity?


Thanks

EDIT: I know you can get a workbook to save and close after inactive time. But I need it to return to a home page?

Click the italics "fx" icon to the left of the formula bar to open the Functions Arguments dialog. Help is displayed for each argument.
If you know how to get a workbook to save and close after inactive time

amend the code you have and ...
.. instead of saving and closing
Code:
With Sheets("Sheet1")
   .Activate
[COLOR=#333333]   .Cells(1,1)[/COLOR].Activate
End With

Sorry mate. To clarify. I know you can get a workbook to save and close after time as I have used a workbook like this before. I didn't write the code for that workbook and don't have access to it. I am very new on my VBA journey. If it is not too much trouble I would humbly ask for help.

The name of the workbook is FTB HOME BASE. and the sheet I need it to return to is named ADMIN.

The problem I am having is that the senior guys are leaving the workbook open on a page that the junior staff should not have access to. They do need to access to other sheets, like the time clock, which they can access through the admin sheet. Any help you could spare would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks

Code:
Option Explicit


Dim CloseTime As Date
Sub TimeSetting()
    CloseTime = Now + TimeValue("00:00:15")
    On Error Resume Next
    Application.OnTime EarliestTime:=CloseTime, _
      Procedure:="GoHome", Schedule:=True
End Sub
Sub TimeStop()
    On Error Resume Next
    Application.OnTime EarliestTime:=CloseTime, _
      Procedure:="GoHome", Schedule:=False
 End Sub
Sub GoHome()
    ActiveWorkbook.Sheets("Sheet1").Range("A1").Select
End Sub

Put this code in the ThisWorkWorkbook in the VBE

Pardon my ignorance. But I place the second code in the ThisWorkbook Sheet in VBA. Where do I place the first piece of code?

Thanks you for your time and patience!!

In a new module.
ALT + F11 to enter the VBE
In the LH Project window select your workbook, then in the toolbar, select Insert>>Module>>>Paste coe in RH window.

I created a Module and pasted the following code into the window



Option Explicit


Dim CloseTime As Date
Sub TimeSetting()
CloseTime = Now + TimeValue("00:00:5")
On Error Resume Next
Application.OnTime EarliestTime:=CloseTime, _
Procedure:="GoHome", Schedule:=True
End Sub
Sub TimeStop()
On Error Resume Next
Application.OnTime EarliestTime:=CloseTime, _
Procedure:="GoHome", Schedule:=False
End Sub
Sub GoHome()
ActiveWorkbook.Sheets("Sheet1").Range("A1").Select
End Sub

Private Sub Workbook_BeforeClose(Cancel As Boolean)
Call TimeStop
End Sub

Private Sub Workbook_Open()
Call TimeSetting
End Sub

Private Sub Workbook_SheetChange(ByVal Sh As Object, ByVal Target As Range)
Call TimeStop
Call TimeSetting
End Sub

The code will only run if I trigger it and the message I get is a 1004 error.

Sorry about this I am probably missing something basic here

Thanks for you help guys, Please let me know if there is any other information you need me to provide. I really appreciate your help

Regards

Did you put it ALL in the Module ??
See Post #4
The first block of code goes in the New module
The 2nd block of code goes in the "This Workbook" module

Thank you for your reply and your patients. I have done as instructed. I have placed the first block of code into a Module. Then the second into the "This Workbook" Module. Nothing seems to be happening. Have I got this set up right?

Here is a screenshot

Thanks for your help on this. It is an important function of this workbook:)
