You can use OnKey to assign this key to a different purpose. See VBA Help.

You need two macros:

Sub remapper()
Application.OnKey "{F12}", "OnlyReturn"
End Sub

Sub OnlyReturn()
Application.SendKeys "{ENTER}"
DoEvents
End Sub

First run remapper. Once it has been run, anytime you touch F12, the sub
OnlyReturn will be called automatically. OnlyReturn generates the ENTER
keypress

It is not working if you are in edit mode in a cell. There, if you pass the
F12 (When you are writing in the cell) it bypass the macros and F12 react
again as "save as ".

I am in dead end

Macros will not execute while the worksheet is in Edit Mode. Therefore my
solution will not work in edit mode.
