Default Code stops for no apparent reason

Hello,

I wrote some code, that creates multiple charts (more than 10 or even 20).
The code works fine, but after a short while, it stops for no apparent
reason, while VBE indicates that the code is still running. If I want to stop
it, Excel quits.
I wonder what is causing this. Does someone have the answer? I has probably
to do with the loop, I guess.
See below for the code.

greetings
René

Sub CreateDiskChart()

Dim Bereik
Dim strSheetName As String, strSheetName2 As String, strChartTitle As
String, strWorkBook As String
Dim intRow As Integer, intCharts As Integer

strSheetName = ActiveSheet.Name
Sheets.Add
strSheetName2 = ActiveSheet.Name
strWorkBook = ActiveWorkbook.Name
intCharts =
Application.WorksheetFunction.CountIf(Sheets(strSh eetName).Range("A:A"),
"customer")
Sheets(strSheetName).Select
Cells(1).Select

For n = 1 To intCharts
intRow = ActiveCell.Row
Set Bereik = Range(Cells(intRow, 4), Cells(Cells(intRow,
1).CurrentRegion.Rows.Count + intRow - 1, 7))
Range(Cells(intRow, 4), Cells(Cells(intRow,
1).CurrentRegion.Rows.Count + intRow - 1, 7)).Select
strChartTitle = ActiveCell.Item(2, 0).Value & " (" &
MonthName(ActiveCell.Item(2, -1).Value, False) & ")"
