Hi Chris,

When you get the error does the line to activate the worksheet get
highlighted because it appears to be an incorrect worksheet name.

If so, it is probably something wrong with the worksheet name. This can be
incorrectly spelt or even a space a the start or end of the name. Try
re-naming the worksheet and ensure no leading or trailing spaces.

Hi all
I am trying to get my workbook to open on the cover sheet. I have tried to
use 2 to 3 codes but each time it comes up as run time error 9 out of range
or opens on the last sheet I was working on. what can I do?
Here is one of the codes, I have put it into the ThisWorkbook section in VBA
Projects. The Sheet is named Cover and it is the last on my list at the
bottom of the workbook and Sheet 14(Cover) in the Projects list.

Regards

Chris


Private Sub Workbook_Open()
Sheets("Cover").Activate
Range("A1").Select
End Sub
