Find the attached file Regards or Regarding this?

You can refer to an attached file in an email in a couple ways. The one that I typically use is something like this:

  • Please see the attached (file) for…
  • Please see the attached file for my proposed agenda for the meeting on Friday.

 

This is very clear. The reader knows to look at the bottom of the email, and they will expect to see a proposed agenda there.

If you want to use the verb find, it is better to use regarding to connect the name of the file and the contents of it. This is a gerund phrase, and it is used as an adjective phrase to describe what the file is about. If I rearrange my previous example, I could say:

  • Please find the attached file regarding my proposed agenda for the meeting on Friday.

 

If you have already explained what the contents of the file should be, you can replace that in the above sentence with “this”, as in:

  • Please find the attached file regarding this.

Hope this helps!
