    Cool

    Does anyone know how to send a message to a ICQ No. using VB?

    It doesn't matter if it isn't a standard message. Just as long as the text is sent.

    Yep, it's possible, I did it before, you have to download the ICQ api: http://www.icq.com/api/

    The examples provide will get you started, you can make the message dialog appear, and you can then use the GetWindow and GetWindowEx api to click the send button, it's not that hard, be sure to read the documentation provided in the ICQ api, these will help you.

    Unfortuanatly I deleted my sample project but I'll be willing to help you if you need me to (ICQ me if you need me)

    Have funnn!

    Thanx for that

    but I have also found out a easier way. Simply get VB to send a e-mail to [ICQ No.]@Pager.ICQ.COM

    Mind your help did help me a lot.

    One slight problem with the ICQ API User Guide.
    The Examples are in C++.
