I am new to this forum so forgive me if I over looked this question elsewhere.

I am looking for a way to utilize the NetWare Send Message Utility, included in the NetWare(common) utilities. I wish to automate the process. I have over one hundred users and all I want to do is have them click a button and send an instant, preformatted message to their supervisor. So I thought if maybe there is a command line that I can use with nwsndmsg.exe that would be the answer. Can anyone help Thanks

You can set up a DOS batch file to send the message:
click.bat
SEND "message" TO .user.mydiv.mycomp

"Message" it the message that will be sent.
.user.mydiv.mycomp is the distinguished login name of the supervisor.
If the supervisor is in the same context, the distinguished name is not needed.
