to the point, i'd like to make an application to send and receive gsm sms messages to and from my pc. previously, i've made one with vb 6.0 and mscomm control. now i'd like to make another, with .net technology, but i can't find the component or whatsoever to do so. do i have to use 3rd party components (e.g. activexperts' sms and pager toolkit)? or there's actually some built in component from microsoft?
thank u all, really appreciate help in any way
regards

AFAIK.. you need a piece of hardware with a sim card in it for the sending purpose...
or are u asking about the code?

i was asking about the code =P and whether microsoft, in this case .net has provided some means to do so without some 3rd party component. while waiting for a reply here, i've tried some components (e.g activexperts' sms and pager toolkit, giant technology's gsms toolkit, and oxygen's mobile activex control), all of which do not satisfy me enough =P can you or anybody help me with this? like, point out some good activex component, or, even better, tell me how to do it directly from .net classes, if any exist =P
thanx for the reply
