Each tab represents an aspect of a department. Each Department needs info from several tabs and some overlap. There are a total of about 8 departments. I want to create a macro that Formats each tab to simplify it, then pulls out the data for each department into a separate workbook reducing each workbooks size and simplifies it as a whole.

Is there a simple macro to pull out specific tabs ? then create a summary tab for each new workbook?

Workdays for a market open Mon, Wed, Friday?
Yes! Use "0101011" for the weekend argument in NETWORKDAYS.INTL or WORKDAY.INTL. The 7 digits start on Monday. 1 means it is a weekend.
This is a really vague question. "Simple" is relative to your VBA skills. Do you have any code you are working on?

Moving a tab to a different workbook is very simple, just record a macro of yourself doing it and then look at the code:

NOTE:
When you have overlapping data I would recommend organizing the data by data type and not department.
