I've the same problem but got a workaround somehow.

In the report designer mode change the parameter "mode" to be "character" this makes the report to be formatted in ascii format. If you choose mail option the report is sent as report.txt this report can be opened in word, excel, notepad, wordpad, and any other software that can read ascii files.

The limitation is only that the formatting i.e. borders and lines are not printed.

But the data is there.

Hope it helps you somehow. The mail function was meant for oracle mail but not for windows. Let's keep looking for better ways of solving this. I'll welcome more suggestions and discoveries.

Tom
