Thanks again Rodrigo But the real problem dat lies with me is that i am using windows for my project.And as mentioned by u in ur prior mail i cant use kannel for the purpose.Thats really dissapointing. Well all that u said regarding fakesmsc or using a GSM phone in my USB port, requires Kannel to be installed.Can I do all dat by installing the Kannel in a Linux "virtual machine" ?

As an SMSC (server) you can use: 1) A real SMS service, provided by a phone operator (this will cost you money, and I suppose you don't want to spend $$$ on it) 2) Fakesmsc, which is an utility provided with Kannel, for testing the bearerbox and smsbox. It doesnt send any real messages to the outside world. or 3) a GSM phone or modem, connected to the serial/USB port of your computer. Kannel uses this phone as an SMSC and you can send and receive real SMS messages as if you were connected to a carrier service. Although I have not tested this configuration, many users have, so this is what I recommend. Best regards, Rodrigo.
