How to change default ribbon tab when launching Word 2007
Yes, but not through any option. You will have to create an addin which
stores the 'active tab' when quitting Word and then selecting the tab when
Word starts.
For information on seeing which tab is selected, or how to select a certain
tab, you can check out the following excellent VBA example by Tony Jollans
(should be easy to translate to C++):

Note that other addins might influence the ribbon as well, while users could
also uninstall addins without running Word thereby influencing the ribbon on
its next start.

Is it possible to change the default tab everytime I run MS Word 2007?
For example, when I open Word 2007, the default tab is HOME, then I
decided
to click the ADDINS to show my custom toolbars. Then close the
application.
The next time the application is run, I wanted to see that the default tab
is
the ADDINS.
One more thing, is this also possible programmatically? I am embedding
MSWord library in my program which is responsible for launching MS Word.
Please help.
Thank you in advance.
