Hello Neetu


1) How do I make sure messenger service is running on the computers so that they can receive messages?

I have no Idea

2) When issuing the following command at the dos prompt, I get an error -
when I use it I use the network ID for the PC no the userid
You can get this ;
1. hit the windows key and the pause break key at the same time to get the "system properties" window
2.clicking the "network Identifacation" tab then reading the "Full computer name"

or by issuing the SYS(0) function in foxpro


hope this helped
