Default how can this filter be done in a macro?

I have a table of between 50,000 and 60,000 records from which I have to
extract several hundred records. The following function, filled down a
helper column, is one way of filtering these records (via the Auto-Filter
tool):

=IF(AND(ISNUMBER(MATCH(LEFT(B6,3),Sheet1!$A$2:$A$1 1,0)),ISNUMBER(MATCH(C6,Sheet1!$B$2:$B$39))),"X"," ")

B6 is an account number, whose three left digits signify what type of
account it is. A2:A11 in Sheet1 is the list of those three left digits I
want to extract. C6 is an expense code; B2:B39 in Sheet1 is a list of those
expense codes I want to extract. One would run the AutoFilter on the "X"
values returned by the above formula.

However, what I would like to do is have a macro which runs the same logic,
copies the filtered records, and pastes them in a new sheet. Then all I have
to do is attach that macro to a button.

How to do this?

Thanks for any insight.

Dave
