Hi All

I have a client - server application and i'm adding some functionality to it!

i'm building a new server application which will wait until it recieves a mesage from the client and for example will be instructed to send an email or an SMS!

The question is how can the client instruct the server to send a particular sms! how should i pass that instruction!

I'm using VB6(duh) and SQL Server 2000! Any help would be greatly appreciated!

Also i have a Mobile connected to the com1 port of the server so it can send SMSs ... do you have any idea on how to send smss that way!

Thanks
Nick
 
Have you looked into an SDK from Nokia?

I know that they do PC Suites, it's possible that you may be able to use this by finding windows and sending keys...

Use Winsock to communicate between server and client.

Thanks
