Hi,

You have two choices.

When you shift and tab backwards once you will probablly be in a list of
attachments and will hear the word message. That message is the email itself
rather than the first attachment. Right and left arrow through the actual
attachments and hit enter to open or control-c to copy each attachment
separately for later pasting elsewhere. Otherwise, hit control and a to
select them all them control and c to copy them all for later pasting into a
folder. Strangely enough, when you choose the control and a then copying
option you do not copy the actual email itself i.e. the message that you
landed in when you first hit shift and tab to go into the list of
attachments.

However, that method may not show up attachments that are embedded in the
text of the email. A more certain way of getting all the attachments out
into a folder is to hit alt with f then m while you are in the body of the
email. This will leave you on an OK button which you click. You are then put
into a standard save screen where you can navigate to the folder where you
want to save the attachments.

I hope this helps.





Take care,

Gerry Ellis

When you shift-tab back once, you'll be in a list of attachments. To open
one, press enter. In my experience, if there are two, it's the second that
you want. If there are more than two, after opening the second, you'll need
to return to the attachments field to open the others, one by one.

If this doesn't work, please post again. It may be you have embedded
attachments, which is another process.

Subject: [JAWS-Users] Opening attachments in Outlook-2010

Hi. I'm using the latest version of JAWS and am unable to open attachments
in Outlook 2010. How do I do it?

When I'm in the message body and shift-tab back, I hear "message", then if I
do it again I get to the subject, etc. What's the secret to opening
attachments when in Outlook 2010?

Thanks. (I've checked the manual and experimented but have no luck.) Thanks.
John
