Default How to open a specific worksheet via code from workbook_open

This is the code i'm using that gets a runtime error application defined or
object defined error:-

If ActiveSheet.Name = Worksheets("sheet1").Range("c5") Then
MsgBox "Already here on... " & ActiveSheet.Name
Else
'MsgBox "Not here!"
Worksheets(Worksheets("sheet1").Range("c5").Value) .Activate
End If

Hope you guys can help!

Thanks that works great, however, one problem, if the user has previously
closed the app on the worksheet the code is referring to, I get a runtime
error on workbook open.

How would i code to check if the worksheet requested to open up at workbook
open is already activated?

Hope this makes sense!

Cheers

I have a combobox which is populated with all the worksheets within the
workbook. The controlsource of the combobox is linked to cell c5 on Sheet1

My question is how do i make the Excel workbook open at the worksheet which
is detailed within the combobox linked cell.

I've been previously using in the Workbook_Open procedu-

Worksheets(Worksheets("sheet1").Range("c5").Value)

but the above code doesnt seem to work.

Hope you can help!
