With no way to execute an attachment from the collection, is there any way to bring it into the visible window? For example, if I have 28 attachments, and only items#1 through #7 are in the visible window, is there any means to make attachment item#14 visible? I have a means with my adaptive screen reader to locate text on the screen and move the mouse to it, then click on it, but is there any way to make an attachment item visible without manually scrolling the field/window?
 
No, there are no documented/supported ways of doing that.

May you can create an additioinal UserForm with a ListBox, which lists
all attachments?

Then would the user be able to access the attachment that isn't physically on the screen?

I don´t understand your question. I mean, you could choose a control
which gives you more power with the visible items.

I guess what I'm trying to do is access an attachment that isn't in the visible window. If there are 15 attachments, but only 7 are displayed in the attachment field, and I want to get to and open attachment#11 without physically scrolling the window to bring attachment#11 into view, how do I do that? Or how can I use the object model to bring attachment#11 into view within the field?

Hi Dennis,

you can´t do that at all via the OOM.

If the visibility of Attachments on the screen are your problem, then
you can add an UserForm to your project with e.g. a MSFlexGrid. This
Grid supports a TopRow property which allows you to determine the
visible row(s). You just have to copy all needed Attachment data into
the grid.
