Former Member — Thu, 26 Oct 2006 11:05:54 GMT

Hi All,

When using the FM so_document_send_api1 to mail a .xls file I receive an empty file, It works fine with .txt file.

Thanks in advance for your help.

Thanks,

Aaron.

Can you cut-paste the relevant part of your code...it would easier for the forum to get back to you.

As I understand from your post..the above code works fine with TXT file.

Can you please indicate what do you change to send it as an XLS ??
