E-mail Attachments

Having used Outlook 2000 for many years, and now using 2007, am wondering if
when there is an attachment to an e-mail, can it be displayed as a file on
the bottom of the message rather then up at the top near the address info?

Current configuration has a little yellow folder entitled message, and then
next to it are the attachments. I can never open up the yellow folder, and
sometimes forget to look up there to see any/all attachments as might be
included. I guess on my part, it's how I'm used to seeing the format, thus
was wondering if it could be changed?

The little yellow "folder" called message isn't a folder; it's an envelope
which IS the message. It allows you to switch from attachment preview back
to the message.

With all that said, as the old saying goes, changes are good, & I am/was
using software which is/was 6 plus years old, I should embrace as is.
Meaning, if I can't change it back to "how it was" then it should be used as
is. Thanks! But I would like iif it could be changed.

No, you can't. Why would you prefer that over the current implementation?
