    Lightbulb Send SMS via Excel VBA

    Hi,

    Does anyone know is there is a way of sending SMS text messages from excel?
    And if there is can this be automated from within VBA so that the OnTime method could be used?

    We need SMS gateway provider of India telecoms to fire the SMS.

    Re: Send SMS via Excel VBA

    if you know the e-mail for the SMS (Most providers have this) you can send the SMS the same way you would an e-mail. for example the following e-mail address would send SMS to a phone.

    T-Mobile: [email protected]
    Virgin Mobile: [email protected]
    Cingular: [email protected]
    Sprint: [email protected]
    Verizon: [email protected]
    Nextel: [email protected]

    where phonenumber = your 10 digit phone number


    it woudl be specific to each phone carier, i'm hoping this will work in your case.
