"Save As" function issues

Every time I try to use the "Save As" function in Microsoft Word, my PC tries
to open a completely unrelated program (AutoManager WorkFlow 6.1 - by Cyco
software). I am running Microsoft Office Word 2007 (12.0.6504.5000) SP2 MSO
(12.0.6514.5000) on Windows Vista Enterprise (Service Pack 2). Is this most
likely an issue with the settings in Microsoft Word, or in the AutoManager
Workflow program?
 
Are you accessing Save As with a keyboard shortcut (presumably one you
assigned to it)? If so, it may be being overridden by a different
assignment to that combination in Windows.
 
Given that Workflow 6.1 is some sort of document management application, it
seems likely that it intercepts calls to save documents. How it does this I
haven't a clue as I am unfamiliar with the application, but a Word add-in
might be a possibility - or it could work at operating system level.

Try this:
delete the registry key:
Hkey_classes_root\odma32\amwf

found that was being checked from within Word during save-as
removing it solved the issue for me, oddly we only had the problem on a
select few PCs so it was a troubling problem.
