I also have had a need to control tab focus in a Word 2007 VBA application. It appears there is no actual command to do this, from what I have researched. I have tried to use (from inside a VBA macro) the command: sendkeys("%H") for example, , to revert to the home tab, but it does not always work, only sometimes. Cindi Meister Microsoft MVP told me of the sendkeys trick.

Good luck, please let me know if you find a better way!
