I've been working on Android program to send email with an attachment (image file, audio file, etc) using Intent with <code>ACTION_SEND</code>. The program is working when email has a single attachment. I used <code>Intent.putExtra(android.content.Intent.EXTRA_STREAM, uri)</code> to attach the designated image file to the mail and it is working fine, the mail can be delivered through the Gmail. However, when I tried to have multiple images attached to the same mail by calling <code>Intent.putExtra(android.content.Intent.EXTRA_STREAM, uri)</code> multiple times, it failed to work. None of the attachment show up in the email. I searched the SDK documentation and Android programming user group about email attachment but cannot find any related info. However, I've discovered that there's another intent constant <code>ACTION_SEND_MULTIPLE</code> (available since API level 4) which might meet my requirement. Based on SDK documentation, it simply states that it deliver multiple data to someone else, it works like <code>ACTION_SEND</code>, except the data is multiple. But I still could not figure out the correct usage for this command. I tried to declare intent with <code>ACTION_SEND_MULTIPLE</code>, then call <code>putExtra(EXTRA_STREAM, uri)</code> multiple times to attach multiple images, but I got the same erroneous result just like before, none of the attachment show up in the email. Has anyone tried with <code>ACTION_SEND_MULTIPLE</code> and got it working with multiple email attachment?

A row detail

Detail views are divided into sections. All the information in the data section comes from columns in the selected row. The other sections display data from other, related rows.

Related data can be related in a to-one or a to-many fashion. Captions of data related in a to-many fashion link to a list view showing a filtered view of the table.

Try moving around until you find a non-empty to-many entry and click on the label to get to one. You can move back to the root by clicking on the database name in the header.
