The only way you can delete a sheet and keep it too is to have more than one
file. Use Save-As to create the same file with another name, then delete
the sheet(s) in the copy. HTH Otto

Click the workbook's X icon - not the Excel X icon which is at the top right
of the Excel window.

Or, you could right-click on the sheet tab, select 'Move or Copy', then in the 'Move to where...' pull down the top drop-down and select (new book).
Make sure that 'Create a copy' is unticked.

The sheet will be removed from your original workbook and will then occupy a new, separate, untitled workbook.
