If you are working on Forms 9i or 10g you can do it by importing java mail api provided free by sun and using it in your forms application.
A good place to start is the Forms 10g demos availaible on otn which include a working example of your requirement.
With Forms 6/6i or earlier you would have to make use of external procedures (perhaps a c application using ora_ffi) or host to a command line utility like febooti Command line email - Utility to send mail which supports sending attachments.
please explain how to send attachment through forms 5
Hi Kashif Javed Rana,
Thanks for ur reply but can you explain the tools i.e. how to use the host command ,as i am using forms 5 and my administrator is not going to use java so i have to use these host commands.please explain in detail.

Syntax of host commmand is
host (command, screen_mode);
It will help u a lot if u also look up the Developer 2000 help. In forms 5 click on help Forms builder help topics or Ctrl+H and type host in resulting window.
U will also have to look up the help of third party software u wish to use for sending email with attachments.
