Coming back to Trigger:

Field Event Triggers -> On Select-> Action Type (Layout) -> Action (Activate Sheet) - > Sheet ID = If (Area='Tokyo', 'SH02')

SH02 - is your sheet ID of taregt sheet.

Try using Trigger, it would allow you do what you want. Try something like "OnSelect" event under 'Field Event Triggers'.

Hi, i think i misunderstood your requirement. you can do it in an easier manner. use conditional display property of sheet ( General tab -> Show Sheet -> Conditional), put there, Area='Tokyo'. it is done. if it doest help, please let me know.
