I cannot replicate your crashing problem with CTRL + s and F12
Did you reenable events after saving the workbook with the code?
I would presume so.
What happens with File>Save?
What happens when you click on the "Save" Icon on Toolbar?
What happens when you just Close the workbook?
If you want to send me the workbook to me via email I can have a look.
Change the AT and DOT to appropriate punctuation in my posting address.
