Emails/SMS messages in Access

K

Kerry

Our access database is set up to send emails to customers
However as the progression of mobiles has increased, more and more customers
have mobile numbers as a contact source. Is there any way in access to send
an SMS message?

Any help would be great. Thanks.

You can send text messages using SMTP to mobile phones by obtaining the
@suffix of the mobile number e.g <MobilePhoneNumber>@vodafone.net - Just an
example I do not kow if this is correct.

http://www.notepage.net/smtp.htm is a good website for US based cell phones,
I am sure if you need UK or other then a search on Google et al will help.

Let me know if this helps. I have a vb.net program that sends messages to
my pager during certain process, and I would be interested to see any other
peoples responses to see if this kind of thing works in Access.
