[PWS32]

Hi,

I have found a tool to send a sms with own programs

this tools are DLL with the name : ASMSCTRL.DLL (the SMS and Pager Toolkit COM component)

any examples found on the site : http://www.activexperts.com/activsms/
one of these examples is a VBScript

you found on this site any parameters for any countrys : http://www.activexperts.com/activsms/smsclist/

Code: Select all

' ********************************************************************
' Example1:
'    Sends an SMS message through a service provider.

Option Explicit

Dim asObj

Set asObj = CreateObject( "ActiveXperts.SMSC" )

Wscript.Echo "ActiveXperts SMS/Pager Toolkit " & asObj.Version & " demo."
Wscript.Echo "Expiration date: " & asObj.ExpirationDate & vbCrLf

WScript.Echo "Please visit http://www.activexperts.com/activsms/smsclist/ for a list of SMSC service providers. Use the appropriate provider properties in the fields of the object, like ProviderType, ModemSpeed, ModemsSettings and so on)"

asObj.ProviderDialString = "1122334455" ' Provider's full dial-in number, including dial prefixes, int. dialoing codes etc.
asObj.ProviderType = 1		   ' UCP = 0, TAP = 1
asObj.PortID = 1                   ' Comport
asObj.ModemSpeed = 1200            ' Depends on provider. 1200bps is most common
asObj.ModemSettings = "7,e,1"	   ' 7,e,1 or 8,n,1. Depends on provider
asObj.Sender = "00000000000"       ' Set your own mobile phone number here; only digits are allow, minimum 1 character, max. 16 characters
asObj.Recipient = "004412345678"   ' Recipient's mobile phone number. Format depends on providers. Most common formats are: 004412345678, 4412345678 and 12345678
asObj.MessageText = "Hello, world" ' SMS message to send. Must be less than 160 characters
asObj.LogFile = "c:\smslog.txt"    ' Trace log to see what's going on
asObj.SendMessage TRUE	           ' TRUE means: through provider, not through GSM

If( asObj.LastError <> 0 ) Then
    WScript.Echo "Failed to send message, error: " & asObj.LastError & " (" & asObj.GetErrorDescription( asObj.LastError ) & ")"
    WScript.Echo "To view the trace file, open " & asObj.LogFile & "."
Else
    WScript.Echo "Message successfully delivered"
End If

this tools are also use by PB or can one translate this vbscript to BP ?

Best Regards,
Peter

Maybe you can use extended AT-commands.
So you dont need that DLL at all.

yep, open a comport, send the at commands to build up a line, then send the data (just ascii) necessary to send the message, then an escape sequence and disconnect using the at commands

i've done that in the past here in the netherlands, but some companies offer to do it via email, that's easier, or http, fancy and semi real time, or tcp/ip plus some protocoll of their own (hey, i worked for one of them )

Are there any DLL with some function to recharge cellular-phone with any euro amount?

[blueznl]

you wouldn't believe it, but...

there actually is an api (NOT a winapi, but a https session to *somebody's* server that *would* allow online upgrading, in fact, it is in use by a telecom company in the netherlands, which supports online upgrading (to give some more details: you're dialling into a voice response system, that system takes some numbers, then does a https post (might have the exact term wrong here, i just managed the project, don't ask me techie details ) with the number / subscriber code to update the credits left

scary, isn't it?

but no, it's not a dll
