Excel-sheet attachment having encoding issues

[Former Member]

Hi Everyone,

I have an abap report that upon execution, needs to send pricing alerts to the customer through email. The details of the pricing order are there in the excel sheet that is attached to the email sent to the customer. The excel sheet that is received at the other end, shows the error message "The file is corrupt and cannot be opened", if the excel file is generated from systems using SolarisX86 OS. I suppose this is related to the encoding format of the excel sheet getting generated. Please assist me as to how can I solve this problem. Thanks for your help.
