Rather than setSelectedTab() have you tried using the setActiveSheet()
method. Just reading the javadoc for the setSelectedTabe() method and it
says this;

"Selects a single sheet. This may be different to the 'active' sheet (which
is the sheet with focus). "

and setActveSheet() says this;

"Convenience method to set the active sheet. The active sheet is is the
sheet which is currently displayed when the workbook is viewed in Excel.
'Selected' sheet(s) is a distinct concept. "

which implies that setActiveSheet() is the method you want to use I think.

Yours
