Hi I have a function called mail_dba which i load in my .profile

In .profile

FPATH=$ORACLE_BASE/admin/$ORACLE_SID/dbafuncs export FPATH
autoload mail_dba

Then in the location specified by FPATH i have a file called mail_dba which contains the following:

mail_dba_ ()
{
mailx email_at_address.here << EOF
~s$1
~r$2
EOF
}

This says that the first parameter i pass is the subject, and the second is a file to mail.

Then i invoke it like this:

mail_dba "Email Subjest" name_of_file_to_send

Hope this helps.

Cheers

Ceri

Thanks

Ceri
