Greetings, rohgan !

To delete attachments from messages in Outlook:

    * Double-click on the desired message to open it in its own window.
    * Click on the attachment you want to remove with the right mouse button.
    * Select Remove from the menu.
    * Close the message window.
    * Click OK in the Do you want to save changes? dialog.

Best wishes!

Hi rohgan,

You are composing an email and have attached a file.  Before sending you decide you don't want to send the attachment.  Do I have it right?  If so, then to get rid of it just click on the attachment and hit the Delete key or right-click the attachment and select Remove.

Cheers!
rohgan,

In your post you said that the Remove option isn't appearing when you right-click an attachment.  What version of Outlook are you using?
