Bring Excel file to front when running Outlook VBA code

I wrote a macro in Outlook to set the value of a cell in Excel file which is opening.

Sub test()
    Dim objExcel As Object, WB As Object, WS As Object
    Set objExcel = GetObject(, "Excel.Application")
    objExcel.Visible = True
    Set WB = objExcel.Workbooks("Book1.xlsm")
    WB.Activate
    Set WS = WB.Worksheets("Sheet1")
    AppActivate "Microsoft Outlook"
    WS.Range("A1").Value = "hoho"
End Sub

It sets the value of the cell, but I still stand in Outlook.

How can I display the Excel file instead of Outlook?

The way to do that is to minimize the Application Window and then maximize it.

objExcel.WindowState = xlMinimized 
objExcel.WindowState = xlMaximized
