Im making a experiment, and i want to use my Nokia 5110 cellphone to send a SMS from my computer.. Im trying to make a security alarm and if my sensor is triggered a SMS will be send to me informing me about the situation.. Do you know how? PLEASE HELP!!
Depends on what programming language you are using. If you do a Google search for "SMS ActiveX", I know you will find ActiveX objects specifically designed to do this.
Worst case is you need to use whatever TCP/IP tools are available to you and do it through Nokia's website. Either way, won't be too hard.
I want to use Visual Basic language.. I saw something in the net related to this topic, http://www.autobleep.com/index.html only it doesnt uses a computer,its stand-alone.. i want to interface it in the computer.. Any clue?
It doesn't look like that's what you need. It doesn't appear capable of sending an arbitrary message, only those which have been programmed in. Though I could be mistaken.
You need to talk to your cell phone provider and see if they offer a web based or dial up SMS interface. Most likely they offer both, in which case you would use your modem to dail up and send, much like you would with a pager. No need to reinvent the wheel.
