This worked for me. I wrote my file to the sdcard.
Intent sendIntent = new Intent(Intent.ACTION_SEND);
sendIntent.putExtra(Intent.EXTRA_SUBJECT, subject);
sendIntent.putExtra(Intent.EXTRA_STREAM, Uri.parse
("file://"+Environment.getExternalStorageDirectory()+"/data.csv"));
sendIntent.setType("text/csv");
