VBA to send SMS with MPE

Beitrag von Staffan »

Is it possible to use the components of MPE in VBA to send audible notifications from Win 7 to my Android 5, preferably by text/SMS? If so, is there a tutorial on how to do this?

In answer to your subject, the end result of your scripting needs to be like

Code: Alles auswählen

d:\Path\MyPhoneExplorer.EXE action=sendmessage savetosent=1 number=123-456-7890 text="SMS message goes here"
MPE on Windows should be "connected" to MPE on Android at the time, for best results.

Not sure how this relates to the body of your post, but I use this all the time to send SMS messages "from" Windows, "through" the phone. It's actually just a "Send SMS" command that flows from your script, through MPE on Windows, to MPE on Android, to the device's SMS system. Of course this assumes your Android can send SMS by itself, without using MPE at all. Phones can send SMS; don't know if tablets can do that.

The 'other' way of sending SMS from Windows is through an email-to-SMS gateway. This is entirely separate from MPE, and often costs money.

Thanks! That works excellent. Is there a way to disable the "waiting for connection"-timeout in the app? Or a way for MPE in the computer to warn me that there is no connection (forgot to start and connect the app)?

Messages will be delivered at least approx. two hours apart.

Edit:
What other command line paramaters are available? Where can i find an oversight?
