Sending text as popup message
-
Hi, can anybody let me know how to send a text just like popup message to another system(by selecting the username from dropdown box) in LAN through program. thanx in advance Thomas. ThomasKennedyBose
older applications like PopUp utility on Win95 use mailslots (Popup creates mailslot named "messngr", and periodically checks if there are new messages in mailslot. when sending messages, it simply writes to messngr mailslot on another machine) you can also use messenger service on Win2K and later, but i never used that, so i can't go into details (this is what is used when you issue a command like "net send <machine> hi" at command prompt).

I don't know special api-calls for this ... but maybe you can use the Windows command "net send" ??? (translated from a german windows ...)
NET SEND {Name|*|/DOMAIN[:Name]|/USERS} MessageExample:NET SEND ThomasBoseKenn "Do you need further help ?"cr97thanx...but it should be done through programatically...slect an user name from the dropdown box which displays all the users in one domain,when we click on "Send" button ,string in the edit box should be sent to that user just like a winpopup message(just like NET SEND cr97 "Ya..I need your help?" command works)....

And why don't you make a dialog, where the you can select the text and the user ??? And after pressing "SEND" you concatenate all the strings like
strCall = "NET SEND "+strUserName+" \""+strMessage+"\"";then you can execute "strCall" ... is it a solution for you ? cr97 P.S. Sprichst du deutsch ? -

You can try to send the message to the user ...
NET SEND bob "Hi ... are you online ?"This sends the message not to a machine but to a user in the network ! In this case it doesn't matter on which machine "bob" is logged in. Try it at the DOS-Prompt ... cr97 -
