    If you're using xl2002+, make sure you turn on autorecovery:
    tools|options|save tab.

    If you're not using xl2002+, make sure you save often--well, even if you're
    using xl2002+, that's a reasonable suggestion.

    You may want to consider using Jan Karel Pieterse's addin called AutoSafe (note
    spelling).

    It doesn't overwrite the existing workbook when it saves. It saves to a user
    selectable folder. And when it's done, it either deletes these backups (or puts
    them in the recycle bin). And the user can always restore the backups from the
    recycle bin.

    (look for AutoSafe.zip, not autosafeVBE.zip, for your purposes.)

    Jan Karel's version will know if there was a crash and prompt you to open the
    last version it saved.

    And those suggestions won't help with your current problem. I think you'll be
    making those changes again.
