Excel attachment in external email sending

Question

Hi guys.
Just having a bit problem in my excel attachment in external email sending (internet). The contents of my attachment are being considered as one column per line item, which is supposedly divided into columns according to its tab or space.
example: i sent this :
PO# Poitem
A 1
it will be displayed in excel as:
column1
PO# Poitem
A 1
it should be like this:
column1
column2
PO#
Poitem
A
1
can anyone tell me what additional fm(s) do I need to implement before calling fm: SO_NEW_DOCUMENT_ATT_SEND_API1 to send the email.
thanks a lot!
cheers,

I need a create a excel file (or tab delimited file) and send it as attachment by mail to the user (in background processing). I use SO_NEW_DOCUMENT_ATT_SEND_API1. I have a problem, that 1 Excel line is splited into 2 lines in mail, because there is more then 255 chars in Excel line.
