Default Macro to create two copies of worksheet, then run macro.

Hi, I searched the forum but haven't been able to figure out what I'm looking for. I'm sure this is super simple for most of you but my excel skills are hit or miss. What I'm looking to do is make two copies of a worksheet (to make three total) then rename them based on the file name. Then run the same three macros in each one of the three worksheets. Pretty simple right? But I discovered that the copying part throws an error when I use it in other files because the actual file name of the original file is part of the code. how can I get this to work on any file name? below is the code, and attached is a similar file that I want to use this macro on. I can't attach the original file this macro was created on because I accidentally overwrote it Thank you.




Code:
Sub ThreeWaySplit()
'
' ThreeWaySplit Macro
'

'
    Sheets("DL_8_Auburn Oven 3 TUS_01282019").Select
    Sheets("DL_8_Auburn Oven 3 TUS_01282019").Copy After:=Sheets(1)
    Sheets("DL_8_Auburn Oven 3 TUS_01282019").Select
    Sheets("DL_8_Auburn Oven 3 TUS_01282019").Name = "Auburn Oven 3 TUS_260"
    Range("F33").Select
    Sheets("DL_8_Auburn Oven 3 TUS_0128 (2").Select
    Sheets("DL_8_Auburn Oven 3 TUS_0128 (2").Name = "Auburn Oven 3 TUS_350"
    Sheets("Auburn Oven 3 TUS_260").Select
    Sheets("Auburn Oven 3 TUS_260").Name = "Auburn Oven 3 TUS_260"
    Sheets("Auburn Oven 3 TUS_260").Select
    Sheets("Auburn Oven 3 TUS_260").Copy After:=Sheets(2)
    Sheets("Auburn Oven 3 TUS_260 (2)").Select
    Sheets("Auburn Oven 3 TUS_260 (2)").Name = "Auburn Oven 3 TUS_450"
    Sheets("Auburn Oven 3 TUS_260").Select
    Application.Run "PERSONAL.XLS!Survey40wire"
    Application.Run "PERSONAL.XLS!Survey20WireShrinkRunFirst"
    Application.Run "PERSONAL.XLS!Survey20WirePortaitRunSecond"
    Sheets("Auburn Oven 3 TUS_350").Select
    Application.Run "PERSONAL.XLS!Survey40wire"
    Application.Run "PERSONAL.XLS!Survey20WireShrinkRunFirst"
    Application.Run "PERSONAL.XLS!Survey20WirePortaitRunSecond"
    Sheets("Auburn Oven 3 TUS_450").Select
    Application.Run "PERSONAL.XLS!Survey40wire"
    Application.Run "PERSONAL.XLS!Survey20WireShrinkRunFirst"
    Application.Run "PERSONAL.XLS!Survey20WirePortaitRunSecond"
End Sub

Hi,
When posting code, please wrap it with code tags ( Edit code - select code - click the #button.)
It keeps the macro's structure and makes it easy to copy and handle.
Thank you

Sorry about that, I don't post on forums a lot. I can usually find the info I'm looking for when I search a forum.

I tried to upload the .csv file and didn't notice that it's not a valid format. It's there now.

Perhaps something like this using variables to refer to the worksheets.
When you make a copy of a sheet, the copy automatically becomes the active sheet.
Code:
Sub ThreeWaySplit()

    Dim ws1 As Worksheet, ws2 As Worksheet, ws3 As Worksheet
    Dim arr As Variant

'create copies, rename sheets
    'original sheet
    Set ws1 = ActiveSheet
    'break apart the original sheet name into an array
    arr = Split(ws1.Name, "_")
    'rename original
    ws1.Name = arr(2) & "_260"
    'first copy
    ws1.Copy After:=Sheets(1)
    ActiveSheet.Name = arr(2) & "_350"
    Set ws2 = ActiveSheet
    'second copy
    ws1.Copy After:=Sheets(2)
    ActiveSheet.Name = arr(2) & "_450"
    Set ws3 = ActiveSheet
    
'deal with original sheet
    With ws1
        .Select
        Application.Run "PERSONAL.XLS!Survey40wire"
        Application.Run "PERSONAL.XLS!Survey20WireShrinkRunFirst"
        Application.Run "PERSONAL.XLS!Survey20WirePortaitRunSecond"
    End With
'deal with first copy
    With ws2
        .Select
        Application.Run "PERSONAL.XLS!Survey40wire"
        Application.Run "PERSONAL.XLS!Survey20WireShrinkRunFirst"
        Application.Run "PERSONAL.XLS!Survey20WirePortaitRunSecond"
    End With
'deal with second copy
    With ws3
        .Select
        Application.Run "PERSONAL.XLS!Survey40wire"
        Application.Run "PERSONAL.XLS!Survey20WireShrinkRunFirst"
        Application.Run "PERSONAL.XLS!Survey20WirePortaitRunSecond"
    End With
    
End Sub
