Error in Saving File with Controls

I get "System Error" & H8000FFFF (-2147418113) when I try to save an Excel file.

The workbook has list boxes and combo boxes with VBA code. In the Microsoft help literature similar errors are characterized as attributable to ActiveMovie controls on a userform. What is an ActiveMovie control? Do combo boxes and list boxes qualify?

Microsoft's suggestion is to copy the sheets and paste them in a new file. I can't ask users to do that, and a sheet copy does not transfer the VBA behind the controls.

Has anyone else experienced this problem or have a solution? I have this awesome application that keeps crashing!
