Hi,

To be frank have no tools, its Sparc OS 5.10 version of solaris.
I need to Insert a file into .doc in windows ( Insert -> Object and then select the file and create the object within the .doc )
However the files which are inserted into .doc are files that i ftp to windows from Unix using filezilla.

Since there are quiet large no of files, i tried to create a .doc in shell
uuencode $FILE $FILE > sample.doc
Then i used mailx to send the file directly to me
uuencode sample.doc sample.doc | mailx <mail-id>

I received the sample.doc attachment in my mail, however was unable to open it.
I am expecting the attachment in the mail to be .doc and within .doc there must be a file i redirected to sample.doc
