tab open? we have a custom ribbon group and would like to set Word to open

Hi =?Utf-8?B?Sm9l?=,

tab open? we have a custom ribbon group and would like to set Word to open

No, unfortunately there is not. Closest you can get would be to assign the Tab a
shortcut key that's different from Word's built-in tab shortcuts (and from any
global tools shortcuts). Put a SendKeys into the AutoNew (or Document_New)
procedure to send Alt+Key and, if you're lucky, this will select the tab for
you. But it's not 100% reliable.
