Vba button to activate sheet

Question

I am trying to write the callback for a button on the backstage view.

I want to select a certain worksheet and show it to the user. I thought aboutsheet("sheetName").activate. This is selecting the sheet sheetName, but Excel stays in backstage view.

My question is how can I actually show the sheet, i.e. make it visible? I need to be able to hide backstage view and go to "document view"...

Regards

Answer 1

Add the attribute isDefinitive="true" to the ribbon backstage button xml. It will close the backstage view after the button is clicked and switch back to the main view with the previous tab selected.
