The only email functions not using OLE are sendEmailNotification and sendEmailMessage. They don't permit attachments.
There are these undocumented ones but they still don't allow attachments. Undocumented Email Functions You'd have to use OLE to drive Outlook (how to do so is a simple search away). ------------------------- David Pechacek AAI Services Textron dpechacek@sc-aaicorp.com David.Pechacek@gmail.com Edited: 18-Sep-2007 at 13:17 by David Pechacek |

Thomas,
When you receive an email with a table in it, chances are you are NOT viewing it in RTF format, but rather in HTML format. You'd need to write a script to convert the table to HTML, then email that. ------------------------- Kevin Murphy http://www.baselinesinc.com The Requirements Management Experts |

Thomas,
One thing I just thought of is if you are using a RichText email reader, why not just send the RichText string in the body? Something like: Object o = current string strEmailBody = richText(o."Object Text") Send strEmailBody as the body of the email, and if your email clients can read RTF, that may work. ------------------------- Kevin Murphy http://www.baselinesinc.com The Requirements Management Experts |

Thomas,
I did some research as I am not in an environment where DOORS is configured to use a mail server, so I can't test it. When you receive an email in a client, there are headers included that tell the client what kind of email it is (HTML, Rich Text, Plain Text). My guess is that DOORS is sending as Plain Text. In your email client, have you tried viewing the Plain Text as Rich Text? Do you get the option to? Another thing I would try is sending simple HTML with DOORS, via plain text. So.. string s = "<HTML><BODY><H1>Hello World</H1><P>This is a paragraph.</BODY></HTML>" and send s and see if that works. I bet that the DOORS mail function defaults to plain text and there is no way to get at that to change it, as it's a server-side function. ------------------------- Kevin Murphy http://www.baselinesinc.com The Requirements Management Experts |

Thomas,
I don't know if this is what you are looking for. We send an automatic email notification when a new account is created with an http-address in the body that points to a ppt with instructions how to log in to DOORS. Of course this is not actually sending an attachment, but as the email client displays the http as a hyperlink, it is almost as good as one. Karl |
