Thanks. That explains why Good Computer Guy here showed me the Shift Tab to get 
into them. 

Bye for now,

Carolyn

 I'll add a couple of bits to Carolyn's absolutely correct offering (just 
noting, I teach Shift+TAB to get from the message body to the attachment row 
since it's fewer keystrokes).

Once you are in the attachment row you use left or right arrow to move among 
the attachments if there are more than one.  If you hit Enter when you're 
sitting on a given attachment the appropriate program for handling that 
attachment will fire up and the attachment is opened up in the program.  If you 
don't want to actually open it, but save it, hit ALT+JA+AV and the Save As 
dialog appears.  If you want to save all the attachments if you've been looking 
through the attachment row, you can use ALT+JA+AA to bring up the Save 
Attachments dialog.

If you don't want to actually look at the content of the attachments at that 
very moment, but just want to save them, you don't even have to open the 
message.  You can simply hit ALT+F,M from the Inbox to bring up the Save 
Attachments dialog for the message you're currently focused on.

There are now so many options in the office programs that there are many 
instances where the ALT key is followed immediately by 2 typed characters 
instead of a single one to bring up a given sub-ribbon, dialog box, etc.
