Default is Multipage or Tab Strip the right tool?

I want to combine three word projects and one spreadsheet into a single user experience. I thought Multipage was the ticket, but I am unable to initiate any sub by clicking any of the named tabs.

Ideally when the user invokes the word document, the user will see four tabs: "Vendor List", "Partial Waiver", "Final Waiver" and "Notary". The "Vendor List" invokes a spreadsheet. The other three invoke separate word 2016 document templates I've developed. The user should be able to select any tab, and in any any order.

Never had a need for Multipage or a tab strip before. Cannot get them to work the way I expect. Clicking on the tab itself does nothing. The tutorials I've read use either the form activate() event or an action somewhere within the Excel spreadsheet. (I cannot find anything for a word document.)

Is the Multipage or Tab Strip control the proper approach? Or is there a better option
