I am using outlook for my outside email.  I have two accounts that I am using
one is my hotmail account and in outlook I can see the personal files that
are a part of my email.  When I include my other email which is a web based
email with "GO DADDY" the only thing I see is my inbox but not the personal
files that I need attached so I can save them in these files.  How do I get
those too?

Are you speaking of folders on the godaddy server?  What type of account are
you using to access godaddy?

Not from Outlook you're not.  If you're accessing the godaddy server from
Outlook, you're probably using either POP or IMAP.  Which?

I believe it is the POP

Then see if godaddy allows IMAP access.  I went looking at godaddy's web
site and couldn't find anything other that POP instructions (and the
description of their email service explicitly says "POP"), so you might
consider calling or emailing their support staff.  POP protocols know
nothing about folders.  IMAP, however, should be able to see all mail
folders on the server.

Other hosting services do allow IMAP (1and1 and gmail, for example), so
perhaps it;s time to switch if it's a feature you could really use.
