Corrupt excel-file

[CognosMarson]

Hi,

I've encountered a strange problem, when I create a Job that will send out an email with the report attached as an excel-file(or html, the only two i've tried) the file gets corrupt, i.e. the attached file is not an excel-file instead it's a .file file named =utf-8Acsa..........

Have anyone else had this problem and got a solution to it?

I haven't seen that happening. What specific version of Cognos Analytics are you using? What email server? Is it possible the email server is mangling the attachment somehow?

Just thinking out loud...

Cheers!
