Keyboard Shortcut

Hi,
I just got a MAC two months ago. I was wondering if there is a keyboard shortcut to attach files in a Apple Mail message?

I'd start with http://www.google.com/search?hl=en&source=mac&q=apple+mail+keyboard+shortcuts

http://www.hawkwings.net/AppleMailKeyboardShortcuts.pdf which is the second hit shows an attach file shortcut.

FYI, keyboard shortcuts are listed in the menu next to the command.

In this instance, under the File menu you'll find "Attach File..." and the sequence Shift-Command-A

Attaching Files

You can also just pull the file you want to attach over to your eMail and let up on the mouse and it should insert itself as an attachment.

Quick and easy also! Different strokes!
