Steve, thanks for replying. I solved the problem. It may seem obvious, but it wasn't to me. Although I couldn't get FS Reader to open the file when it was an attachment, it did open it after I saved that attachment and clicked on it again.

NFB Newsline, when it detects a Jaws screen-reader in use, won't let you read daisy files in another program except to use FS Reader. If you want to use your Outlook program to do it, you'll need to unload Jaws and use an alternate screen-reader.
