    Re: How to send message using GSM from VB6

    does that code have anything to do with GSM?
    do you have GSM modem?

    there have been many threads about sending text messages in this forum, most seem to use some web interface
    i do my best to test code works before i post it, but sometimes am unable to do so for some reason, and usually say so if this is the case.
    Note code snippets posted are just that and do not include error handling that is required in real world applications, but avoid On Error Resume Next

    dim all variables as required as often i have done so elsewhere in my code but only posted the relevant part

    come back and mark your original post as resolved if your problem is fixed

    In Australia ALL new smart phones use 4G (aka LTE I think).
    Australia still has 3G, and phones can revert to that (EG when I call my friend, both of our phones revert to 3G whilst we are on the call)

    I just googled, and still could not find an answer to this question -
    Is 4G GSM ?
