Hi,

I currently use SMS software that has a GSM modem and has a DDE link to my software program to trigger the sending if SMS alerts.
However, this software does not run as a service and a user can shut it down. Also, I sometimes get message failures.

What I need is a robust method of sending SMS alerts. I am hoping that notepage software will do this for me.

Q1: I want to send SMS alerts using a land line. Which software will do this, notepage pro or pagegate?

Q2: Do either of these programs support DDE? I have over 20 critical alarms which need to trigger SMS alerts.

Q3: Can notepage pro or pagegate run as a service?

Q4: If DDE is not supported, I can either generate text files or sendkeys to the SMS program. Which of these would be the best method?

Regards
Joe
