CDO mail attachment is not working

Hi
I have some SQL code below which I'm running on a server DEV_TESTSTAGE2 with
Windows 2000 and SQL Server 7. I'm trying to send an attachment which works
fine if the attachment is on DEV_TESTSTAGE2 but if the attachement is
somewhere else on the network it send the email without the attachment and I
get the error message below. I've had a look on the internet but most of the
web peges refer to permissions problems in ASP. In my case I'm using SQL
Server objects and I'm running the query with Windows authentication and my
NT logon id
has access to the file attachement . I've tried running the query using SQL
authentication but I get the same error.
Any help would be gratefully appreciated

> Ronan|||Hi Uri
Yes I should have mentioned I do have access to the file...it has 'Everyone'
permission
I had a look at the article you sent me...it refers to xp_smtp_sendmail...I
can't find that extended stored procedure in the master database of SQL
Server 2000...I have xp_sendmail but that requires you set up
a MAPI client which I don't want to do I want to send it via SMTP

used it to send reports generated as text files to business managers in the

and registewr it inside sql, to get it to work...easy to do.

I downloaded and installed xp_smtp_sendmail and again it works fine for
attachements
which are on the machine where xp_smtp_sendmail is registered but it
still doesn't seem
to work when the attachment is on a different machine. I think I'll just
have to put my attachments
on the machine where xp_smtp_sendmail is registered as a work around.
Thanks for your help.
Regards
Ronan
