How To Get Word 2010 To Open On Home Tab

I recently installed Office 2010.  When I open Word, it opens on the Insert tab, not the Home tab.  I have seen responses to this question that the ribbon is minimized -- In this case, it is not.  I have the ribbon showing ... Is there another solution?  I should say that Excel does open in the home tab.

Thanks!

Click on the File tab and then on Options and then on Customize Ribbon and in the Main Tabs list, select the Home item and then use the buttons on the right hand side to move it to the top of the list.
Hope this helps,
