    What is the file type and how big is it? What program do you use for emails? For Thunderbird, go to Write->Attach->From File.. and you are away.

    What type of file? Compress it first...

    Right Click on File > Send To > Compressed Folder (which will make it a file called "originalname.zip).

    What do you mean by documents from a file? Are you talking about emailing a folder?

    When you double click on this "file", does the page change to show all the "documents" you want to send?

    If so, zip it up as was suggested
