Convert spool output of ABAP list into excel and send email

Hello All,
I have a requirement where we need to
1. schedule a background job programtically
2. moniter backround job (if complete or not)
3. once its complete take spool output ,convert into excel and email.
I have following difficulties.
1. i have reached upto stage 3. However, i am not getting proper ouput of excel via mail. it contains junk characters. I searched SDN and tried various option but not successful.
2. AT last i have submited report and collected output in memory rather than submiting back ground job. Now excel out put is coming somewhat as required but while sending mail , i am getting limitation of 255 chars . My excel row has more than 255 line size.
Please suggest.
Thanks in advance,
jigs.

Export ABAP List to Excel and send it as email attachment

Hi,
I have a program that sends email to employees, using SAP Office, this email sends an attachment in html (an abap lisp exported to html). To create this attachment I use LIST_FROM_MEMORY to recover data and then WWW_HTML_FROM_LISTOBJECT to create the html file.
Then the email is sent using SO_NEW_DOCUMENT_ATT_SEND_API1 and it works fine. But now I need to send this ABAP List as an Excel instead of sending as a HTML file.
How can I do this? Is this possible?
Thanks in advance
Best regards
P.S: I've tried to recover information from ABAP List as an ASCII file (using LIST_TO_ASCII instead of WWW_HTML_FROM_LISTOBJECT) and then sending the file as an XLS instead of HTM (this is determined in PACKING_LIST parameter of SO_NEW_DOCUMENT_ATT_SEND_API1), but when I open the excel file, all information is stored in the first cell, so you cannot perform any operation on it.

Convert SAP spoolOR list to excel and send as an email attachment

Hello All Masterminds ,
Iu2019ve developed a utility, in which users has to maintain one u201CZu201D view where they can give any report name, type of attachment (PDF, XLS, TXT) and sender email addresses.u201DNote: thing to remember here is Iu2019m creating XLS,TXT,PDF format dynamicallyu201D
It is working fine for PDF. Iu2019m submitting the program and creating spool and converting it to PDF and sending to their emails as an attachment. It looks fantastic. When Iu2019m doing the same thing for XLS it is showing messy output, I tried many functions and search lots of unanswered, unfinished SDN posts. I almost tried every single clue given in these posts but no luck. Email part is working fine using classes ( l_document = cl_document_bcs=>create_document , l_document->add_attachment , l_send_request->set_document( l_document ).,cl_sapuser_bcs=>create( l_uname ).,l_send_request->add_recipient, l_send_request->set_send_immediately( '' ). ) .
My real deal is to create a beautiful XLS out put. I also tried FMs LIST_FROM_MEMORY and LIST_TO_ASCI but no-luck. I thought instead of spool if I use u201CSubmit EXPORTING LIST TO MEMORY u201C option may be It works but BIG NO 
   Iu2019m sure some genius out there has done something like his , I ain`t genius that is why I am stuck Please guys throw me some bones . As I said, I am able to do most of the things. I need some magic code /answer which turns my messy, ugly unformatted excel sheet attachment to beautiful u201Cpiece of art u201CExcel output.
Here are the FMs I tried so far with different combinations.
CALL FUNCTION 'LIST_FROM_MEMORY'
CALL FUNCTION 'LIST_TO_ASCI'
CALL FUNCTION 'GUI_DOWNLOAD'
CALL FUNCTION 'RSPO_DOWNLOAD_SPOOLJOB'
CALL FUNCTION 'RSPO_RETURN_SPOOLJOB'
CALL FUNCTION 'CONVERT_OTF'
CALL FUNCTION 'SAP_CONVERT_TO_XLS_FORMAT'
And logic like to get rid of things getting in Asci tables

Converting alv list to excel and send to sapoffice or mail in batch mode

Hi every one.
I have the alv list and then I can send to sapoffice or mail in batch mode.
If I open the list in Sapoffice I can save the list in XLS format or if I open the list by mail, I can select all the content (because is a html file), select the copy option and then open EXCEL and paste the content.
Can I use an option to convert the alv list to an excel format and then send to mail or sapconnect in batch mode?

if your requirement is to send a Excel sheet by Email then use this sample program.

DataTable dt = list.Items.GetDataTable();
foreach (DataRow row in dt.Rows)

Problem converting ABAP list into PDF

Hello,
Having converted a spool request of an abap list into pdf the "intensified" attribute of the list items will disappeare. Text in the list with i.e. COL_BACKGROUND INTENSIFIED would be converted to text with blue and normal font. None of the possible combinations of colours and intenstions have produced an output in bold.
Any ideas would be appreciated.
Thank you in advance.
Best regards,

Problem when we dowload spool list into excel.

Hello Gurus,
I have developed an custom report, The output contains 15 columns. When i run the report in foreground the output will be displayed in correct format also when i download the report list into excel(List->Save/Send->File) then the records will be downloaded in proper format(Each record under respective column heading).
But when the report is scheduled in background the spool list(SP01) is displayed in the proper format. But when I download this into excel(SppolRequest->Forward->SaveToLocal) . The excel data will be in improper format and all record value are not under respective column heading.
Can anyone advice me.
Thanks and regards,

Hi,
Use the FM 'EXCEL_OLE_STANDARD_DAT'.
In this FM populate the tables parameter 'fieldnames' to get each cloumn below the heading correctly.

Hello,
-T:
Specifies that the bcp utility connects to SQL Server with a trusted connection using integrated security. The security credentials of the network user,
login_id, and password are not required. If
–T is not specified, you need to specify
–U and –P to successfully log in.
-U:
Specifies the login ID used to connect to SQL Server.
Note: When the bcp utility is connecting to SQL Server with a trusted connection using integrated security, use the
-T option (trusted connection) instead of the

Nihath

Hello Nihath,
As per your description, you have to read each and every items in list with column value then only you can generate excel. There is direct way to export datatable to excel but in your case you will also need to iterate Col3 value to create new row in excel.
I would suggest to use CAML query to get all items then check Col3 value. If there are multiple value then add them as new datatable row and finally export full datatable to excel.
Here is link for CAML:

Finally add this feature in ribbon:

there is a workaround you can try, create audience and add DL to them and deal with the audience or convert DL to groups
