Hi Tim,

Sorry no links but I think you might want general ideas as well. It all
actually depends on the interface used to send pager messages. As far as I
know, the most widely used way is an e-mail gate - you send an e-mail to a
certain address and it is forwarded to the recipient's beeper. This is
simple then - you should just send an e-mail from your program, either by
native .NET's System.Web.Mail (which I personally don't like), or with the
CDO.Message object.

Hi,

I have examples in my book (see below). However, specifics depend on pager
type (and pager service type).
