wasup all, i was wondering if there is a way to send messages via a textbox on winnt, i know that i can put a shell command behind a button

shell "net send 212-1 helo",1

where 212-1 is the comp number and helo is the message

this is the command that i have behind my button, i have been messing about and tryint o get it so that i can type into a text box and click send so that the text in the text box will send.

this is what i have got, but it doesn't work:-

shell "net send 212-1" + (text1.text),1

can somebody tell me where i am going wrong.
