Hi,

This is (as far as I know) not something that you can do as standard, there are however, several packages available for doing this. SMS BlueNote is one and I believe there's a product called Robot/SMS - there are probably others as well. Bluenote is one I have experience of and I would recommend it to anyone - you will need to have a compatible modem.

You may also be able to find some free/shareware tools for this on the internet.

Regards,

Martin Gilbert.

I use MPLUS from Bytware.
It’s affordable and it’s replaced my need to log into the AS400 to status checks during the day.

I get emails, pages, txt messages 24/7 and I can customize for shifts, days, escalations lists, etc.

Thanks for reply,

What I ‘m accuratetly looking for is :
1.The requirements (Hardware/software) to send SMS from AS/400;
2. A mean to communicate with SMS modem, for exemple is there commands to insert in a CL program .

Regards

Hi,

Here’s the web site for Bluenote.

There are various commands that you can use to send sms messages using bluenote.

If you can send an e-mail from your AS/400 then you can send an SMS message. Just send the message to the phone number at <a href="http://whatever.com" title="http://whatever. " target="_blank">whatever.com</a>:

T-Mobile:  <a href="mailto:phonenumber@tmomail.net" title="mailto:phonenumber@tmomail.net">phonenumber at tmomail.net</a>
Virgin Mobile:  <a href="mailto:phonenumber@vmobl.com" title="mailto:phonenumber@vmobl.com">phonenumber at vmobl.com</a>
Cingular:  <a href="mailto:phonenumber@cingularme.com" title="mailto:phonenumber@cingularme.com">phonenumber at cingularme.com</a>
Sprint:  <a href="mailto:phonenumber@messaging.sprintpcs.com" title="mailto:phonenumber@messaging.sprintpcs.com">phonenumber at messaging.sprintpcs.com</a>
Verizon:  <a href="mailto:phonenumber@vtext.com" title="mailto:phonenumber@vtext.com">phonenumber at vtext.com</a>
Nextel:  <a href="mailto:phonenumber@messaging.nextel.com" title="mailto:phonenumber@messaging.nextel.com">phonenumber at messaging.nextel.com</a>

I got that from this page:
