Maybe you could find a link and include that rather than use half your

Seriously, you are sort of assuming EVERYONE has the Reader installed.
Not everyone does, and for them it is a real challenge to open that file,
(AND the reader is currently a HUGH download...)

Part of what you are saying is that you need instructions for every (and ANY)
e-mail program ever made, and ALL WEB mail interfaces...

Sorry, but I can think of no "killer answer", other than Click (or Double click)
on "the attachment"...
(See how even a simple phrase like that has two choices depending on the
OS and their settings... <grin>)
