What code might I use to sort all the worksheets except the master summary
sheet into alphabetic order? (The master summary sheet's tab name is unique
and I want it to always be the first tab in the workbook.)

You could use a macro...

If you're new to macros:

Debra Dalgleish has some notes how to implement macros he

David McRitchie has an intro to macros:

Ron de Bruin's intro to macros:

(General, Regular and Standard modules all describe the same thing.)

And I'd just let the macro sort the mastersheet, too. Then after the sort, you
can add code to move it to the leftmost position.

Sheets("summary").Move befo=Sheets(1)

(change the name as required.)

This is a very primitive one. But try it.

Sub sortsheetname()
Dim n As Long, i As Long
For n = Worksheets.Count To 1 Step -1
For i = 2 To n - 1
If Worksheets(i).Name Worksheets(i + 1).Name Then
Worksheets(i).Move after:=Worksheets(i + 1)
End If
Next
Next
End Sub
