    Macro Button to move 2 tabs to a new workbook

    Hi All,

    I've went through the website and have found numerous threads in regards to this, but none seem to be working specifically for what I'm trying to accomplish.

    I have a workbook with approximately 50 tabs and various macros throughout the workbook. I have two tabs (Billing Sheet & Review Tab) that have references to other tabs that I need to be able to extract and save to desktop as a new name based on cells in the inputs tab --- Basically "Billing + Review Sheet for Inputs!e23"

    I would like a button on both the billing and review tabs that would initiate this macro. I also would like to keep the formatting, while getting rid of the references (basically a copy/paste without formulas). The review tab has a bunch (60) checkboxes that also need to be exported. I would like to keep the macros from the workbook to the new workbook, because I also have a "Print to PDF" macro that I would like to still work.

    What I currently have -- just essentially selects the two sheets and then saves the entire worksheet.

    Thanks!!

    Try this. It saves a copy of the workbook. Then opens it and deletes the sheets you don't want to keep.

    Surround your VBA code with CODE tags e.g.;
    [CODE]your VBA code here[/CODE]
    The # button in the forum editor will apply CODE tags around your selected text.

    I'm getting a 400 error. The workbook is created, but tabs don't delete.

    Re: Macro Button to move 2 tabs to a new workbook

    I think this should work. There may be something additional about your workbook that hasn't been described.

    Do you have an auto-open macro that automatically runs when the file is opened?

    Do you have a userform in the workbook? And if yes, is it displayed or triggered automatically?

    Are the two sheets password protected or hidden?

    Does the code replace the formulas with values on both sheets before it errors?

    Re: Macro Button to move 2 tabs to a new workbook

    Almost yes to all of those. I have a userform when the workbook opens for the first time (referenced by a specific cell in the inputs tab). This userform dumps data into the inputs tab.

    The two sheets are also protected (without a password).

    The code does replace the formulas with values on both sheets before it errors.
