[Former Member]

Hi,

i use the FM <b>SO_NEW_DOCUMENT_ATT_SEND_API</b>1 to send a mail with an attachements. For this, I put the data for ahe Attachmend to the Export-Parameter <b>contents_bin</b> of this FM.

In a 6.20 system without enabled Unicode - everything work fine.

In a 7.00 system with enabled Unicode - there is always a blank character after every character

Does anybody know this problems an can give me a usefull hint?

Hi,

Please check whether your program is unicode enabled? if not use UCCHECK and make it unicode enabled.

The fm SO_NEW_DOCUMENT_ATT_SEND_API1 will work with Unicode.

Please refer following threads:

http://www.s001.org/ABAP-Hlp/abapset_locale.htm

The parameter value is exceeding the defined limit

Try using the new CL_BCS object for sending emails - this is unicode compliant.

There are several examples in the ABAP forums for this.

Hi,

thank you. Do you have an example report to send a mail with an excel attachment by using the CL_BCS.

Take a look at my response to

There is a test program there for sending email with document text.

Adding attachments can be done by including the following code. I believe the input tables are the same or similar format to those used with the existing FM.

   data: ATT_BIN_TYPE TYPE  SOODK-OBJTP. 
   data: ATT_BIN TYPE  SOLIX_TAB.
   data: ATT_BIN_DESC TYPE  SOOD-OBJDES.
   data: ATT_TEXT_TYPE TYPE  SOODK-OBJTP.
   data: ATT_TEXT TYPE  SOLI_TAB.
   data: ATT_TEXT_DESC TYPE  SOOD-OBJDES.

   * Add Text Attachment if present
       IF zatt_text[] IS SUPPLIED.
         TRY.
             CALL METHOD document->add_attachment
               EXPORTING
                 i_attachment_type     = att_text_type
                 i_attachment_subject = att_text_desc
                 i_att_content_text   = att_text.
           CATCH cx_document_bcs .
             "    'Error creating text attachment'.
             RAISE send_error.
         ENDTRY.
       ENDIF.
   
   * Add BIN Attachment if present
       IF zatt_bin[] IS SUPPLIED.
         TRY.
             CALL METHOD document->add_attachment
               EXPORTING
                 i_attachment_type     = att_bin_type
                 i_attachment_subject = att_bin_desc
                 i_att_content_hex    = att_bin.
           CATCH cx_document_bcs .
      "    'Error creating BIN attachment'.
             RAISE send_error.
         ENDTRY.
       ENDIF.
   
   * Add document & attachment(s) to email object
       TRY.
           CALL METHOD l_obj->set_document
             EXPORTING
               i_document = document.
         CATCH cx_send_req_bcs.
      "     'Error linking document to email'.
         RAISE send_error.
     ENDTRY.

Hope this helps
