Hi Expert,

I want send the .csv with as an attachment through email. And I try have tried the example program "BCS_EXAMPLE_7".

It works fine if the attachment is .xls, but when I change it to .csv, the attachment cannot be generated correctly.

The line break function is not working in the .csv file and all the content will display in the same row when open it through the notepad.

Also, I have try the sample below, but the number of characters are restricted to 255, but my case have more than 255 chars per row.

Please help.

Best Regards,

WF

Have you tried inserting a carriage return or line feed or both at the appropriate point to create the line break? For your width, if you have a long row, can you fit within 255 characters using comma delimiters and condense keyword?
