XL2000: Access Violation Error Running VBA Code with UserForm, SaveCopyAs and Save Functions

In Microsoft Excel 2000, when you run Visual Basic for Applications code that includes a UserForm object and the SaveCopyAs and Save functions, you may receive the following access violation: Note: This problem does not occur in Microsoft Excel 97.

This error message appears when a UserForm is loaded and the Save method of the workbook is run after the SaveCopyAs method. The SaveCopyAs method sets an invalid value to the "storage" object of a UserForm. Because of this, the Save method cannot re-use the "storage" object of a UserForm.
