Default Auto_open won't run on multiple files

I have 3 workbooks for weekly payroll: Management, Admins, and Agents.
Each file has 7 worksheets, named "Sunday", through "Saturday".
Different people pull up each file and some forget to select the
correct day before editing. So as my first try at VBA, created the
code below to select the correct worksheet.

My auto_open routines work fine if opening each file seperately. But
if selecting all three files and choosing open, only one auto_open
runs. Using xl 2003 on a network.



Sub auto_open()
Dim mydate As Date
mydate = Weekday(Now)
If mydate = 1 Then
ThisWorkbook.Sheets(1).Select
ElseIf mydate = 2 Then
ThisWorkbook.Sheets(2).Select
ElseIf mydate = 3 Then
ThisWorkbook.Sheets(3).Select
ElseIf mydate = 4 Then
ThisWorkbook.Sheets(4).Select
ElseIf mydate = 5 Then
ThisWorkbook.Sheets(5).Select
ElseIf mydate = 6 Then
ThisWorkbook.Sheets(6).Select
ElseIf mydate = 7 Then
ThisWorkbook.Sheets(7).Select
End If
End Sub


The filenames will change periodically and we only open all three
files at the end of the day. I tried using workbook_open with renaming
all three subroutines to unique names with the same results.

I'm also curious, what's the shortest code to accomplish the above?
