Hi,
Does anybody have the VBA coding for texting from an Access database. I already have the database up and running with emailing to a group from the data, and I would like to be able to do the same with texting to mobile phones. Is this possible?

Yes its the same idea as email you just have to get domain name of each cell phone provider. for example for sprint its
2011234567@messaging.sprintpcs.com

its a simple email message.
 
Side Note: Remember text messages usually don't take more than 160 Characters.
 
I have this list of major carrier in The NYC area[tt]
Carrier Domain
Att txt.att.net
Cingluer txt.att.net
tmobile tmomail.net
Sprint messaging.Sprintpcs.com
virison vtext.com
[/tt]
If anyone can add to this I will appreciate it .
 
Thanks to you all. Does anyone know if there is a comprehensive list anywhere, perhaps on the net?
