I have sheet activate code for every worksheet in a workbook.

I have auto_open code that selects the sheet named data.

The proplem is if the sheet named data was active when I exited the
workbook, the sheet active code for data will not execute when opening
the workbook. I have click another sheet then click back into the sheet
named data to get the code to execute.

Any ideas would be greatly appreciated. mikeburg

Maybe just select a different sheet, then select the sheet you want in your
workbook_open event.

Or just call the worksheet_activate event from the workbook_open event:

Option Explicit
Private Sub Workbook_Open()
Call Sheet2.Worksheet_Activate
End Sub

Use the codename (I used sheet2).

And remove Private from the
Private Sub Worksheet_Activate()
line.
