Hi Kang Ring,
please convert the content of the attachement into the binary format and then add it as a mail attachment.
LOOP AT i_data ASSIGNING <wa_data>.
if s_output is INITIAL.
CONCATENATE <wa_data> cl_abap_char_utilities=>cr_lf into s_output.
else.
CONCATENATE s_output <wa_data> INTO s_output SEPARATED BY cl_abap_char_utilities=>cr_lf.
endif.
ENDLOOP.
CALL FUNCTION 'SCMS_STRING_TO_XSTRING'
EXPORTING
text = s_output
IMPORTING
buffer = x_output.
CALL FUNCTION 'SCMS_XSTRING_TO_BINARY'
EXPORTING
buffer = x_output
TABLES
binary_tab = imail_att.
     OR
please use ABAP-Object classes like CL_BCS , CL_document_BCS.....
please findthe below sample code.
  cl_bcs_convert=>string_to_solix(
          EXPORTING
            iv_string   = s_output
            iv_codepage = '4103'          "suitable for MS Excel, leave empty
            iv_add_bom  = 'X'               "for other doc types
          IMPORTING
            et_solix  = s_output_binary  "(of type solix_tab)
            ev_size   = size ).
attachment->add_attachment(                       "attachment of type ref to cl_document_bcs
          i_attachment_type    = 'xls'                     
          i_attachment_subject = l_subject    
          i_attachment_size    = size
          i_att_content_hex    = s_output_binary ).
you need to write the code for adding the receipents, subject and adding this "attachment " as an attachment to the mail.
Hope this will helps to you....,
thanks,
Rahim.
