All, I guess I made the mistake mentioning Excel.
I am creating a tab delimited text file with an .xls file type that Excel can easily open. It is not a binary Excel file. I just need to be able to send the file as an attachement. thanks again and sorry for the mis-statement!

You could uuencode it and then mail the encoded file. The file has to be decoded on the other end. I send binaries off the server to users who wouldn't be familiar with decode software using a python program that builds a mime message with the file attached to the message. You can do the same with perl.
