SQL server DB Mail

  • HI Hi, I have a specific requirement for sending SQL server DB mail. In my scenario, the SQL Server query output should be sent as a PDF or Excel attachment via DB mail. I've successfully sent the query output in HTML format, but now I need the query result set to be sent as a PDF attachment.

    My question is How do I output the results of a query to PDF? and attach then send a dbmail?

     

    Regards

    OK, now tell us what your question is:

    • How do I output the results of a query to PDF?
    • How do I output the results of a query to Excel?
    • How do I add an attachment to a DBMail message?
    • something else?

    Remember that questions end with a question mark (?) Simply providing us with a requirement and expecting us to know what you want is laziness on your part.

  • Don't. Use SQL Server Reporting Services or some other external service.

  • My advice is: never use SQL server email capability for third party apps.   Please use third part app to take care of the emailing capability.
