Create an email attachment using a stream in classic ASP (not ASP.Net)

TheMSsForum.com: The Microsoft Software Forum

Hi,

Does anyone know how to create an attachment using a stream in classic
ASP.

I can see that it can be done in ASP.Net as per the article below:
Initializes a new instance of the Attachment class with the specified
stream and name.
http://msdn2.microsoft.com/en-us/library/6sdktyws.aspx.

Any help is greatly appreciated.

regards
Brendan

Thanks. I should have also mentioned in my original query that I want
to avoid creating a file on any directory. I just want to set the
content of the attachement to the content of a stream.

Heres an example:-

Const cdoContentDispostion = "urn:schemas:mailheader:content-disposition"
Const cdoBase64 = "base64"

Set oPart = oMsg.Attachments.Add

oPart.ContentMediaType = "application/octet-stream"
oPart.ContentTransferEncoding = cdoBase64

oPart.Fields(cdoContentDisposition).Value = "attachment;
filename=""Test.dat"""
oPart.Fields.Update

Set oStreamOut = oPart.GetDecodedContentStream
oStreamOut.Write aByt
oStreamOut.Flush


Where oMsg is an existing cdoMessage (ensure you've added any text and/or
html bodies first) and abyt is the set of bytes that represents the resource
to attach.

What type of content are you attaching?

Hi Anthony,

Thanks for the example. I'll test shortly. I am attaching plain text.

In that case I'll adjust the example:-

Const cdoContentDisposition = "urn:schemas:mailheader:content-disposition"

Dim oPart : Set oPart = oMsg.Attachments.Add

oPart.ContentMediaType = "text/plain; charset=iso-8859-1"
oPart.CharSet = "iso-8859-1"
oPart.ContentTransferEncoding = "quoted-printable"

oPart.Fields(cdoContentDisposition).Value =
"attachment;filename=""Test.txt"""
oPart.Fields.Update

Dim oStreamOut: Set oStreamOut = oPart.GetDecodedContentStream
oStreamOut.WriteText sContent
oStreamOut.Flush

Where sContent is the string content you want to include in the email
