Hi Veronica, Rod already answered your question, but here is the longer answer. Smile. You can take your pick of ways, as usual with Windows. >From within the open message, as Rod says, from the file menu, you can arrow down to "Save As." A quicker way when the message is open is just to press the following keys in order, not all at once: Alt, followed by f and then a, to open the "Save As" menu. Window-Eyes has given us several other ways to get at the attachment list. The manual says: When reviewing an open message containing attachments, you can quickly access attachment details by pressing the Outlook Enhance Attachments dialog with Control-Alt-A (by default). The attachments dialog contains a list of all available attachments, including their size (if available). You can choose to open an attachment simply by selecting it from the attachments list, and pressing enter, or by selecting it from the attachments list, and tabbing to and selecting the Open button. You can save an attachment using the Save As button, and delete an attachment using the Delete button. While Window-Eyes provides access to attachments using Alt-7 twice, the Outlook Enhance attachment dialog provides a more accessible method than Outlook's default attachment control. My comments: I can't use the control-alt-a hot key because I use the Kurzweil calendar app and that uses control-alt-a to open the calendar. The manual says that you need to press alt-7 twice, but I press it only once and then use the tab key to tab to "Save As". I find this last way quicker than the alt, f, a, but we're all different. Good luck.

Please could you tell me how to save attachments in Outlook. I thought it was control S, but that doesn't work. So what I've been doing, is selecting it, cutting it and pasting it into a word doc. Too much trouble.
