Most of the time I simply tab over from the subject line. The first thing you should see is Message. Cursor over and you hit the first attachment. However, I have a colleague like the one you describe above. I had to hunt around for his attachments using the JAWS cursor. As I recall, I went to the bottom of the message and started looking from there, but there's no quick and easy way to do it. Wish I knew what makes his messages different.

I also press the right arrow, arrow up to open, press enter and I have the attachment.

Subject: Re: Sometimes I can't get to an attachment in outlook Thanks for replying, Adrian. But when I shift tab in this instance, rather than taking me to the attachment area, my cursor goes to the subject line. If I continue to shift tab I cycle through from, to, sent and the body of the message itself. I never reach that area where I expect the attachment is hiding. I can see that there is an attachment because in the message list jaws says attachment, and because my colleague tells me he has sent one. It's a mystery that, I suspect, has something to do with how the sender attaches the attachment.
