Send SQLite db file from within app

How can I allow the user to send (via email) the SQLite db file?

I can convert the db to a string (as a whole or by column) and attach the string to an email, but that is then a huge mess of text.... I need to get the actual db file sent in the email FROM the phone by the user.

Basically the app contains a couple fragments and a lot of user input data (filling out forms) as well as time/location saved data, all of which is saved in SQLite databases. I need to get these db files to the office so they can be imported into other forms (which I have yet to create).

I've searched a lot and can't find this answer. Or should I be using something other than SQL?
