the  macro  is  existed in  file  STOCK 1 and will also be  in new  file   as in XLSM after  run  the  macro   because I  need  it  the  codes for  each  new  file .

Sub gg()
On Error Resume Next
    Application.ScreenUpdating = False
    Application.DisplayAlerts = False
TryAgain:
    Flname = InputBox("Enter File Name :", "Creating New File...")
    MsgBox Len(Flname)
    If Flname <> "" Then
        Set NewWkbk = Workbooks.Add
        ThisWorkbook.Sheets(3).Copy NewWkbk.Sheets(1)
        NewWkbk.SaveAs ThisWorkbook.Path & "\" & Flname, FileFormat:=xlOpenXMLWorkbookMacroEnabled
        If Err.Number = 1004 Then

If you need the macros in the new file, I suggest you use the .SaveCopyAs method to create a new workbook with all sheets and the macros.

In the attached file, I've renamed the macro (and assigned to your button) and chnaged your macro to use that method, check that the original file has 3 sheets and edit the file to become 1 sheet with the BALANCE data in column C with columns D:F empty.

I've put key changes in bold below and added comments so you can see what is happening:

Sub ExportSheet3WithMacros()
On Error Resume Next
    Application.ScreenUpdating = False
    Application.DisplayAlerts = False
TryAgain:
    Flname = InputBox("Enter File Name :", "Creating New File...")

    If Flname <> "" Then
        ' reuse FlName for full path of new file
        Flname = ThisWorkbook.Path & "\" & Flname & ".xlsm"
        ' if 3 sheets, copy whole workbook with macros
        If ThisWorkbook.Sheets.Count = 3 Then
            ' if 3 sheets, copy whole workbook with macros
            ThisWorkbook.SaveCopyAs Flname
            Else
            ' tell the user (since rest of macro assumes 3 sheets)
            MsgBox "Workbook should have 3 sheets. Please correct and export again."
            Exit Sub
        End If
        If Err.Number = 1004 Then
            NewWkbk.Close
            MsgBox "File Name Not Valid (or used) " & vbCrLf & vbCrLf & "Try Again."
            GoTo TryAgain
        End If
    End If

    Set NewWkbk = Workbooks.Open(Flname)
    'delete first two sheets
    Sheets(1).Delete
    Sheets(1).Delete
    ' with the 3rd sheet of original
    With Sheets(1)
        ' get last row in F
        LstRw = .Range("F" & Rows.Count).End(xlUp).Row
        ' move data from F to C
        .Range("C2:C" & LstRw).Value = .Range("F2:F" & LstRw).Value
        'clear other columns
        .Range("D2:F" & LstRw).Value = ""
    End With
    ' save the file
    NewWkbk.Close SaveChanges:=True

    Application.ScreenUpdating = True
    Application.DisplayAlerts = True
    ' tell user
    MsgBox "New stock file saved as " & Flname
End Sub

It also confirms that the new file was saved. 

Hope this fixes things for you.
