Creating an SMS server that sends and receives SMS

Hi! everyone on this group.

For the last post, i figured out what was the problem. I was trying to
create ans parse xml file which is not possible simultanously as the
file is already in use by a process and another process for parsing
cannot access it.

I have to implement e-banking as my final year project. For that
purpose, i have to implement mobile banking through an SMS server. One
way i heard is use of a GSM modem.How can I implement that ? Can n e
one help me with that? How should i go abut making a protocol?

I would not afford the purchasing of expensive existing APIs such Ozeki
Server or Pheonix.

Need help.

I wouldn't get a GSM modem. Rather I would look for a site that allows
free text messages and just relay it through there.

All you need to do is find a free service collect that data you need
(ie number, message, from) and post that data to the free service's
site.

Try www.esendex.co.uk.

They have a 'free trial' that allows you access your sms inbox with
about 5 lines of c# code. I used it for displaying sms's in a bar and
it works a treat. .NET sample code is available.

HTH,
