You know, I finally got it open.  Not really sure what the problem was.  I was 
highlighting it, and trying to bring up the context menu.  First, the menu 
wouldn't come up, and when I went into the file menu and tried to select save 
attachments, it wouldn't let me save it.  It was weird.  But finally it did 
open.  Thanks a lot for offering to help, though.
Best,
Donna
