After furious head scratching, Jan asked:

| I just tried to send an email with an attachment that is "housed" on a
| computer that I'm networked to, but I wasn't able to attach it. I
| could attach a file if it were on the same computer that the Outlook
| 2007 was on, but not one that had to be accessed through My Network
| Places. I assume I have some setting somewhere that's keeping me from
| being able to attach the file. Anybody have a clue?
