My workbooks are used by a wide community and are sometimes saved down again,
with the curser sitting in the body of a sheet. i want to tell Excel to
always open on a named sheet whenever the workbook is opened.

Put this code in the Workbook object :

Private Sub Workbook_Open()
thisworkbook.Worksheets("Sheet to start from").select
end sub

(obviously you need to change the "sheet to start from" !
