 |
|
Hey! i am developing a reminder system (to work on a LAN). Here users enter the reminder details (like wat to remind about, on what date, at wat time, which user etc.) i've heard about the 'net send' command which can be used to send messages to users in a network. I can program my 'program' to scan the reminder database regularly (using a timer ofcos. but is there a better way?).
But i dont know if i can send a reminder (like a pop-up msgbox) to a particular PC. Is it possible to do it?
(I am using Access as backend and am using Win98 standalone, no network). it is almost impossible for me to test the netsend command as i am standalone. 
IS THERE A PROGRAMMING GOD IN THE HOUSE ????

Shell "net send " & PCName & " " & YourMessage
