Looking 4 script to mail mult files while using Include MIME option

Rita C Workman — Thu, 30 Nov 2000 21:40:03 GMT

I need to send a bunch of files (various name) and email them as attachments daily. I'd like to automate this, but I'm having trouble with the syntax.
I want to use the [include $dir/$files app/msword base64].
But I'm having trouble working out the syntax....
Usually I send constant name reports with multiple include statements in the one include/dummy file. But now I need to send daily an undertermined # of files with a variety of names....
I've been working a script to do this, but so far I'm bombing out...

Anybody doing anything like this? I'm open to any suggestions...I think I'm just brain-fried..

Thanks,
Rita

Hi Rita
I am not to hot on scripting but how about putting your file path/name into a a reference file and do a multiple stepped hit on it for your mail out.

Just an idea.

Hi Paula,

Thanks for the response. It was late yesterday and I was tired-couldn't 'think' anymore. But on the commute home I figured it out....dialed in/keyed and tested it. I got the job to run produce the files, set up my Include with the path/ info and send all of them in one email. Basically, I did what you just suggested.

Thanks again !

Thank you thank you thank you......

Stefan would be so happy to see points being assigned.

And just in case anyone else need to do something like this I am attaching the basic syntax on doing this.
We like the Include file for emailing reports...and so do some others - they may find this handy. It ain't fancy, but it works..

Just went back and checked my attch'd file...(dah..after I sent it ..dah)

on the line print "[include...] >>
it should read
print "[include.......]" >> /home/rw../dummy/jmailer

Sorry folks,
