You can change the properties of the button and use the last macro or use this one
to delete the DrawingObjects in "Sheet1"
Sub Copy_Test()

With Application
.ScreenUpdating = False
.EnableEvents = False

Set Sourcewb = ActiveWorkbook
Sheets(Array("Sheet1", "Sheet2", "Sheet3")).Copy
Set Destwb = ActiveWorkbook
On Error Resume Next
With Destwb.Worksheets("Sheet1")
.DrawingObjects.Visible = True
.DrawingObjects.Delete

'Determine the Excel version and file extension/format

Thanks Ron. I think I said it wrong. Actually, I have a button with macro in
sheet 1 and I place it in column A. Stupid me, I thought deleting the column
will delete the button. My intention was to delete the button/macro in the
sheet 1 in the new file. How do I do that?
Thanks!

Hi Ron,
thanks a lot! It works for me.
I have another question, how do I copy just a range of cells from each
sheets? Actually, I don't want to include column A. I'm using
Sheets(Array("Sheet1", "Sheet2", "Sheet3")).Copy right now and it copies all
cells in the sheets.
Thanks!

Hi lwidjaya
See
http://www.rondebruin.nl/saveas.htm
I use
ActiveSheet.Copy
But you can also use this to copy more sheets
Sheets(Array("Sheet1", "Sheet3")).Copy

I have a master file with a macro in it. When I click a button, the macro
will copy 3 sheets from the master file to a new book. I have macros in 2 of
the sheets that I copy. It works fine (meaning the macros are copied over to
the new book also) until the macro runs the saveas function:
ActiveWorkbook.SaveCopyAs "C:\New\" & NewName & ".xls"
The new file doesn't have any macro in it.
I tried saving the new file as .xlsm and .xlsx but Excel doesn't recognize
the file extensions when I open the new file.
What should I do to keep the macro in the new file?
Thanks in advance.
