RE: Reading attachments in outlook with jaws50.

The other way is to read an attachment in Outlook is to press Jaws key
plus the letter A.
This brings up a dialog box.  You don't even have to tab to the
attachment box.
What is more troubling to me is when the attachment is not in the
attachment box.
Yes, it is just an icon floating around somewhere in the message.
That's fine for sightlings, but it is a royal pain.
I have no good way to find them.  If someone does, that would be great.
Fortunately, most of the time the icon is either at the top or the
bottom of the message.
I use control end, route Jaws cursor to PC cursor and search backward
with Jaws key plus left arrow.
If that is unsuccessful, I press control plus home to go to the top,
route Jaws cursor to PC cursor, and repeat searching.
That works about 80% of the time.
The other 20% of the time, I have to ring my secretary or save the
attachment.  I would rather open than save it, but that's just the way
it goes.
I have found no way even to predict when the system puts attachment
icons in the messages and when the attachments go in their box.

   Hi, follow this steps:
1)- Select the message in the message list and press enter to open it.
2)- Use the tab key until you find the attachments's list.
3)- Select an attachment with the cursor key and press the application
key. This is the same of joining the jaws cursor and press the right
mouse button. You will be placed in a menu of choices where you can
choose if you want to open or save the attachment.
