Using SSIS to send query results via email - sql-server

Question

I have a task to send query result in an email using SSIS 2017.
I have referred to previous posts related to that but i am not able to get my required answer.
Here's what i have done so far:
1. Create an executive sql task with my query and resultset which refers to a variable of object type
2. create a foreach container
3. placed a script task under foreach loop(i think my issue is with this task) and have placed the variable as readonlyvariable
4. send email task with bodytext as variable
My result set is just one column from the table.
I have referred to this url: How to send the records from a table in an e-mail body using SSIS package?
and please find attached the script task code.
Would be great if you guys could help me out

//varCollection["User::EmailMessage"].Value = header;
}
//Format the query result with tab delimiters

varCollection["User::Result"].Value);
varCollection["User::EmailMessage"].Value = varCollection["User::EmailMessage"].Value + message;

}
}
}

Answer 1

I was able to accomplish this without using a script task or db mail. I needed to email myself notices of any reports that failed to refresh across multiple reporting systems. But I didn't want to save the results to a file and attach the file. I just wanted the results in the email body.
I wrote my query to output one concatenated column and added the query results to a recordset Object and used a foreach loop container to append each row to a string variable with "/n" to start a new line.
This created a string that I could use as the body of the email.
