Open Document to Specific Tab

A user wants to click on an excel button and have a document open through the IE Plugin to a specific tab.  I know how to open the document in the plugin with the URL, but the document is saved to open to "tab 1" and the user wants the button to open the document to "tab 2".  How can this be accomplished.

Thanks,

Stephen

Figured it out. The tricky part was how to open the IE plugin so I could send it a variable value. Below is what I used.

The document has an OnOpen Macro that test for the variable value and opens the wanted sheet based on the value.

What about creating a button on your current QVW that launches a URL to the QVW with a trigger set to open that tab?

or you can create a copy of the document with a trigger to open to Tab 2.

to set a trigger: document settings>triggers>OnOpen, etc.
