Thanks, Harry. Yes, that was going to be my fallback plan if I couldn't find a better way. Unfortunately, the client I'm working with is not very adept with computer technology. Saving attachments to her Documents folder would inevitably lead to hundreds if not thousands of files in that location, as she is not competent enough to manage her filesystem. So, I need a simpler solution.
Okay, I had a chance to work with Outlook 2003 today, and I did manage to find a direct way to access and open attachments. Here's what I do: 1. INSERT+A to move focus to and select the first attachment. 2. To open the selected attachment, hit context menu key and select open. 3. If I want a different attachment, use CTRL + right or left arrow to move between and select different attachments. Open the desired attachment as described in step 2. It seems odd to me that I need to use CTRL + right or left arrow to move between the attachments, but that's what works. The good news about this method is that it doesn't involve complexities like the JAWS cursor, or having to invoke a double click. These are tasks that are beyond the comprehension of my client. Thanks, everyone, for your tips and suggestions. -Paul > -----Original Message----- > > A surefire way to get to attachments is to save them to a folder and open > them there.
