Is it possible to backup all the modules, userforms etc. in one file/package easily?

I've just had Excel refuse to save on me. It has saved the workbook, but all my code and forms have disappeared. Fortunately, I have a reasonably recent copy of the worksheet, so I have only lost a day or two's work but it's frustrating.

Ideally, I want to export all the modules and userforms to one zip/file and be able to import them to another spreadsheet (a master copy of the one I'm using) to make improvements.
 

Excel Facts

Why are there 1,048,576 rows in Excel?
The Excel team increased the size of the grid in 2007. There are 2^20 rows and 2^14 columns for a total of 17 billion cells.
You can export the modules by right clicking on them and clicking "Export Module". It will save them as a .bas file that you can import at a later time.
