It should be quite possible and this should be the format:

Dim retValue, strComputerName As String
 
strComputerName = "Your Computer Name Here"
 
retValue = Shell("Net Send " & strComputerName & " Your Message", vbNormalFocus)

The Net Send command may not work correctly on Computers running Windows XP Service Pack 2 since this command uses the Messenger Service which is disabled on PCs with this configuration. There is however a work around should you wish to attemp it. Here it goes:
1) Right click My Computer, then click Manage.
2) In the Computer Management Window, expand Services and Appplications in the left pane, and then click Services.
3) In the right pane, double-click Messenger.
4) In the Messenger Properties (Local Computer) dialog box, click the General Tab.
5) On the General Tab, select Automatic from the Startup Type list, and then click apply.
6) Under Service Status, click Start, and then click OK.

Hopefully, you will not be able to send Pop Up Messages to other Computers on the Network. Hope this helps.

The code can be run virtually anywhere but keep in mind that if Net Send.exe does not exist on the Computer, or if restrictions do not permit this kind of action, it will fail.

First, see if your Computer will support the Net Send command:
1) Start, Run, type cmd, then click on OK
2) At the Command Line type: Net Send ComputerName Message
3) e.g. Net Send Marketing Hello guys (no quotations)
4) Let me know how you made out
