What do you mean by "crash"? What do you actually see? Also, what
version of RB are you using, and on which platform?

This part shouldn't crash, but it's an awkward construction that took
me a while to figure out. Try this simpler version:
if CardIsDirty then
if not SaveCard then return
end if

Calling Self.Close in the Action event of a toolbar item just might be
a way to make an app crash on some platforms. It shouldn't, of course,
but similar bugs have been found in the framework before -- it takes a
lot of bullet-proofing to keep users from destroying things out from
under you (from the framework's point of view).
So, see if you can reproduce this with a toolbar item whose only code
is:
Self.Close
If you can, then you have a nice simple bug to report. The work-around
in that case is probably to activate a Timer with a very short period
(e.g. 1) that calls Self.Close, since I'm sure any such problems in
Timer events was fixed long ago.
