    open up the command window and type net send lab3 Hi or type it in the run box of windows.

    thanks for your help. one more question:

    are all computers able to do the send command?

    i typed in
    net send lab3 Hi
    at the run box and it says it doesn't recognise the "send" command.

    you need a computer with 2K on it and i think XP does it as well, but i am not sure, what OS are you running ?

    Some people have told me they don't think a fat penguin really embodies the grace of Linux, which just tells me they have never seen a angry penguin charging at them in excess of 100mph. They'd be a lot more careful about what they say if they had.

    works in NT 4 too.

    Net command is included in most versions of windows but Send only works for NT 4+ based machines (2k, XP)
