RE: Text format using ESNDMAIL

["Mark A. Manske" <mmanske@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

I have not heard of esndmail; do you have source to look over?

We do similar things here, but the "cheap" freeware way,
by doing a cpysplf, off to a folder, and use snddst with
the attached text file, been working fine; but it is
an "old" and non-fancy way of doing things.

We did have some issues with wider reports, but just had
to bump up the size of our temp file we did the cpysplf into.

I know its not much to go on, but I HTH.

Mark.

Subject: Text format using ESNDMAIL


Dear List,

I am a junior programmer developing a utility to e-mail our invoices using
esndmail.  My main problem is the format that the file attachment takes when
the person receives it.  The invoices look okay when opened up but seem a
lot wider than the normal spool file, with the consequence that when printed
the text wraps around and is unreadable.  Is there anyway around this apart
from re-jigging the printfile to be really narrow?

When you do a drag and drop from Ops Navigator to your desk top then print
the text file it comes out fine.  Is there anyway that the esndmail utility
can produce the text file in the same format as this (a way of changing font
or other defaults...)?

Thanks in advance for any help - it could really speed up such developments
in the future!
