I'd use a variation of Don's code:

sub gothere()
application.goto Thisworkbook.worksheets("Indirect Costs").Range("a1")
end sub

And this variation of Bob's code:

With ThisWorkbook
.Activate
With .Worksheets("Indirect Costs")
.Activate
.Range("a1").Select
End With
End With

I was kind of surprised that Bob's code (without the workbook activate
statement) worked if ThisWorkbook wasn't the activeworkbook.

i also tried the following which stops on "Activate":

With ThisWorkbook
With Worksheets("Indirect Costs")
.Activate
.Range("a1").Select
End With
End With
