S Steve Schapel Jul 19, 2009 #2 George, Yes. There are a number of ways to do this. I use a SMS provider, and send the text messages via FTP out of the database. See my article at http://accesstips.datamanagementsolutions.biz/ftp_sms.htm

You can however you need to know the cell phone company. At least here in North America you can send an email to a cell phone using a syntax like (e-mail address removed) However the portion the right of the @ sign is cell phone company specific. I would assume the chances of your SMS message being treated as spam is considerably higher too. Tony
