Anoter possibility is to use appactivate:

An example:

Private Sub Worksheet_SelectionChange(ByVal Target As Range)
If Target.Address = "$C$3" Then
UserForm1.Show vbModeless
AppActivate Application.Caption
End If
End Sub

When I call a modeless user form, I want to then switch the focus back to
the
excel window that was active when the form was called, but leave the form
active (but not with the focus). Nothing I've tried has worked so far.
