Can I hyperlink in an email to a document attached to the email?

I want to send out an email with attachments. What I'd like to do is have hyperlinks in the email that link directly to the attachments.

I need to send out an email with 20 attachments and I don't want recipients to have to hunt through the attachments. I want to have a paragraph describing each attachment and then provide a link in each paragraph to the pertinent attachment.

I know how to create hyperlinks by highlighting a word and then choosing HYPERLINK... but there doesn't seem to be any direction on how to do what I'm looking for.

Thanks
 
What email program are you using? If you have Outlook, you can put the mail format in Rich Text, then when you add attachments, they show up as file icons inline with the text instead of being under the subject. Its not as clean as a hyperlink, but better by allowing you to have the file in the paragraph describing it.
 
Yes I am using Outlook. I hadn't thought of the rich text/icon thing...that would be better than nothing. Thanks
 
You can also do it in html email, I think it's a link that starts with a "cid"
This can also be used to put some images into your mailing that will always be available with the letter.
