Hi, Can any body help me to developed a vb6 programmed for automatic sms generation from pc to mobile phone an event like in case of "fire at home", "power failure", "security break" etc.
Most SMS Modems can be plugged into a PC, but you need the radio and the service to broadcast out
Search this forum.... There have been Several GSM related topics over the years, most of them with code that could help you get started...

For this propose, I have already developed a VB6 program as given following and working OK. I am using windows xp as OS with driver file inpout32.dll to be copied in C:\Windows\System32\Inpout32.dll & VB6 as programming language
But I am unable to generate an automatic SMS from my PC to my mobile phone. Kindly help me or modify my program as given following so that I can send an event SMS automatically. This project will also help to other forum members as it is not available on the net.
PROGRAM CODE
*************
(1) Module1.bas
---------------------
Start
'// INPUT
'//******
Public Declare Function Inp Lib "inpout32.dll" Alias "Inp32" _
(ByVal address As Integer) _

'// OUTPUT
'//*******
Public Declare Sub Out Lib "inpout32.dll" Alias "Out32" _
(ByVal address As Integer, _
ByVal Value As Integer)

(2) Form1.frm

Start
Dim AEPPort As Integer
Dim AEPData As Integer
Dim pat

Sub AEPOut(Data As Integer)
Out AEPPort, AEPData
End Sub
Private Sub Timer1_Timer()
'INPUT PORT
AEPPort = &H379
Label1.Caption = Inp(AEPPort)
Portinput = Label1.Caption
Code = Portinput - 7
Label2.Caption = Code
If Code = 120 Then GoTo SMS else goto QSMS
SMS:
Label3.Caption = "Fire In the House Send SMS"
QSMS:
Label3.Caption = "SMS not send"
End Sub
------------------------------------- End ------------------------------------
Thanking you
With kind regards

Okay .. look at this GSM thread....
What you need is there.....
A modem or SMS terminal is the logical choice, as Gremlin has stated and linked you up.
But I want to mention that another way of sending SMS with VB6 is, to use an internet service. VB6 can be set up easily to send emails.
There are web services which will transfer incoming email to an SMS and send them to the receipient. This avoids buying an SMS terminal, but you have to pay for the service, too.

My ultimate goal is to send an auto SMS on an event. I will try to the web services also & pay for this. Kindly provide us the Vb6 code for the same.
I am also trying other way for achieving my goal & let you know the progress by posting details here. It will be very useful for VB6 programmer & other members of Code Guru. Thanking you once again for your comments & help .

You can get a Google Phone Number, and have it forward to ANY number. Now, you just have to send an email to it to get a SMS to your phone.
Search of CodeGuru returned Many threads.. Here's one..Quote:
