Microsoft Outlook is running on the network server (at work). Citrix
connects the network server to the PC at my home.

On the PC at my home, my documents are stored in:

DESKTOP
MY COMPUTER
LOCAL DISK (C:)
ALL FILES


In a Microsoft Outlook e-mail, I click INSERT then FILE and the
"Insert File" box is displayed. The "Look In" box contains
"Desktop". Under "Name", I click MY COMPUTER then LOCAL DISK (C:) but
ALL FILES isn't listed.

How do I attach a document stored on the PC at my home to a Microsoft
Outlook e-mail?

Well, the reason why you can't just browse to the directory on your local
machine is because your local machine isn't where outlook is running. It's
running on the server. The C:\ drive is your locally assigned space on the
Citrix server.

The only way I can say for sure is to mail the file to yourself, from
Hotmail, gmail, whatever (assuming the file is small enough), or, if your
company has it configured, use Outlook Web Access.

Other than that, you'd need to look at the options within Citrix's software
that enable a.. well, a file sharing connection between the server and the
connected client so that you can browse the local machine as well as the
virtual machine.
