Ruth,

I saved your attachment to C: drive and then openned it using Notepad, and the following text is inside the file:

        <encoded content removed -- binaries not allowed by ListGuru>

Appranetly you attached a binary file and the List did not allow it.

I've attached a snippet of Pro*C (for Solaris, should work on most Unix variants) for listening on a DBMS_PIPE and sending the output using SMTP (the Internet email standard).
