You may have multiple questions there, and I'm not sure the
main one is an ASP question, but here goes.
Here's a link that may answer your question about attachments:

Here is a link to MS where you can search for fast answers to
questions like these:

If you want to create a file to attach, you must say exactly
what type of file you need. Excel? Word? Text?
You may need to create a file system object to save strings
as a text file. You can put stuff into strings from your ADO
recordsets from your Access database (or any database).
This is a basic problem in VBScript and ADO. Maybe this is
not best addressed in this particular newsgroup.

If you want to extract data "AS DATA," put it in a file and
send it to another technical person to be imported into another
database, then you might want to create a "comma-separated
values" (CSV) textfile, a tab-delimited text file, or an XML file
from an ADO recordset of that data you want to send.
Here is my standard library snippet for creating an XML file
from an ADO recordset:
<% Option Explicit %>
<% Response.Buffer = TRUE %>
<% Response.CacheControl = "no-cache" %>
<% Response.AddHeader "Pragma", "no-cache" %>
<% Response.Expires = -1
'====================
%>

'====================
Dim Cnxn
Set Cnxn = Server.CreateObject("ADODB.Connection")
Cnxn.Mode = adModeReadWrite
Cnxn.CursorLocation = adUseClient
Cnxn.Open Server.MapPath("/mdb_directory/MyAccessFile.mdb")
'====================
Dim rsMyData
Set rsMyData = Server.CreateObject("ADODB.Recordset")
rsMyData.Open
'====================
If Not rsMyData.EOF
rsMyData.Save "F:\DataDirectory\MyXmlDataFile.xml", adPersistXML
End If
'====================
rsMyData.Close
Set rsMyData = Nothing
'====================
Cnxn.Close
Set Cnxn = Nothing
'====================

%>
</body>
</html>
And, finally, here is my standard library snippet for CDO that
includes an attachment (this is a whole asp file):
<% Option Explicit %>
<% Response.Buffer = TRUE %>
<% Response.CacheControl = "no-cache" %>
<% Response.AddHeader "Pragma", "no-cache" %>
<% Response.Expires = -1
'====================
%>
