Run time error (I believe) is causing Excel to crash

Hi All,

I have what I believe to be a basic marco which usually runs fine but at times the code seems to get stuck in a loop and I have to force excel to close. Is the code in a bad format? How can I fix this issue? I believe it might have something to do with the loop or "On Error Resume Next" Appreciate the help!

Code:
Sub TREATS()
'
' TREATS Macro
'
Dim s, so, macname As String
Dim marker As Integer
Const ForReading = 1, ForWriting = 2, ForAppending = 3
    Sheets("Data").Select
    Range("AK9:EQ33").Select
    'Range(Selection, Selection.End(xlToRight)).Select
    Selection.Copy
    Sheets("Treats").Select
    Range("A3").Select
    ActiveSheet.Paste
    Selection.PasteSpecial Paste:=xlPasteValues, Operation:=xlNone, SkipBlanks _
        :=False, Transpose:=False
    Application.CutCopyMode = False
    ActiveWorkbook.Worksheets("Treats").Sort.SortFields.Clear
    ActiveWorkbook.Worksheets("Treats").Sort.SortFields.Add Key:=Range("A3"), _
        SortOn:=xlSortOnValues, Order:=xlAscending, DataOption:=xlSortNormal
    With ActiveWorkbook.Worksheets("Treats").Sort
        .SetRange Range("A3:DG17")
        .Header = xlNo
        .MatchCase = False
        .Orientation = xlTopToBottom
        .SortMethod = xlPinYin
        .Apply
    End With
    Sheets("Treats").Select
    Range("A3").Select
    
      StaffID = InputBox("Please enter staff ID")
macname = "C:\Users" & StaffID & "\AppData\Roaming\IBM\Personal Communications\benelux.mac"
Set so = CreateObject("Scripting.FileSystemObject")
    so.CreateTextFile macname
Set s = so.OpenTextFile(macname, ForWriting)

Excel Facts

Format cells as currency
Select range and press Ctrl+Shift+4 to format cells as currency. (Shift 4 is the $ sign).
Is it possible to implement a save function after re writting the .mac? I cannot see anything wrong with the code as is.
