Default VBA code ok in Excel 2003, but crashes Excel 2002 & 2000

Hello. I have a very complicated (and poorly constructed) legacy
program/spreadsheet that I must now support. I have found a VBA code segment
that is causing some problems. The actual code is excessively complicated,
so I have recreated this simple example.

Open a new workbook. On Sheet 1, place one text box and one command button.
Sheet 2 should be completely blank. Sheet 3 can be deleted or left as is.
Click into the textbox. The intent of the VBA is to allow you to use Tab,
Return, or Down Arrow to get onto the command button. Once on the command
button, Shift+Tab or Up Arrow will return you to the textbox. Tab or Down
Arrow will keep you on the command button. Using Return, while on the
command button, should execute the code associated with the Click Event.

In Excel 2003, everything works as expected. In Excel 2002 or 2000, the
code executes correctly if the command button is clicked. However if you
attempt to use Return to execute the Click Event, Excel crashes. If you step
thru the code, everything executes ok until the last End Sub. I need this to
work in Excel 2002, so any ideas or work arounds will be greatly appreciated.

I am attempting to cut/paste the code which is located on the Sheet1 object.

Thanks for your help, Tom

Private Sub TextBox1_KeyDown(ByVal KeyCode As MSForms.ReturnInteger, ByVal
Shift As Integer)
Dim bBackwards As Boolean
Select Case KeyCode
Case vbKeyTab, vbKeyReturn, vbKeyDown, vbKeyUp
Application.ScreenUpdating = False
bBackwards = CBool(Shift And 1) Or (KeyCode = vbKeyUp)
If bBackwards Then TextBox1.Activate Else CommandButton1.Activate
Application.ScreenUpdating = True
End Select
End Sub

Private Sub CommandButton1_KeyDown(ByVal KeyCode As MSForms.ReturnInteger,
ByVal Shift As Integer)
Dim bBackwards, bForwards As Boolean
Select Case KeyCode
Case vbKeyTab, vbKeyReturn, vbKeyDown, vbKeyUp
Application.ScreenUpdating = False
bBackwards = CBool(Shift And 1) Or (KeyCode = vbKeyUp)
bForwards = (KeyCode = vbKeyTab) Or (KeyCode = vbKeyDown)
If bBackwards Then
TextBox1.Activate
ElseIf bForwards Then
CommandButton1.Activate
Else
Call CommandButton1_Click
End If
Application.ScreenUpdating = True
End Select
End Sub

Private Sub CommandButton1_Click()
Sheet2.Cells(1, 1).Value = "test"
Sheet2.Activate
End Sub
