Sending Text Messages

[Kicker]

Is there an easy way of sending text messages via VBA? I've been able to send emails, but some of our members would like to received a message on their phone.

Apparently it is the same as sending an email, but you send it to the phone number via the Service providers email address here are some

T-Mobile: phonenumber@tmomail.net
Virgin Mobile: phonenumber@vmobl.com
Cingular: phonenumber@cingularme.com
Sprint: phonenumber@messaging.sprintpcs.com
Verizon: phonenumber@vtext.com
Nextel: phonenumber@messaging.nextel.com

Where phonenumber is a 10 digit phone number.

WOW. What great information. I will be trying those later today.

Now I'm wondering.....how am I going to determine which provider the user uses. I guess I can send out a request for information and if they want a text message, they will send it back and I can keep it in their records. Hmmmm

I certainly appreciate your response.
