Hi,
I have few web assistant jobs which creates the HTML reports every day. I need to send the reports through mail once it generates the report?
Is there any option while creating the web assistant jobs?
Thanks in advance

Hello,
You can configure SQL Mail and use it send the report as an attachment.

Use the xp_sendmail command to send the report.
Hope this helps.

Thanks for the reply..
Outlook express is the default mail client on the server machine. Will it supoort sql mail 2000?
i read it some where that "Outlook Express does not provide the MAPI interface necessary for SQL Mail
and SQL Agent Mail. Only Outlook provides that functionality."Is that correct?

Hello,
Outlook Express won’t work since it does not support mail profile, and SQL Mail requires the creation of a SQL profile.
I remember I used Outlook full edition from Office 2000 and Office 2003.
Hope this helps.

SQLMail, Web assistant are deprecated features. http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/cc707782(v=SQL.100).aspx
Please use DBMail instead. You can use DBMail to send email.
Here are few links that you can refer to

DBMail is not available in SQL 2000. Please consider upgrading your SQL 2000 instance to latest versions of SQL Server.
Support policy for SQL 2000 can be read from http://www.microsoft.com/en-us/sqlserver/support/support-updates.aspx
