Sms Via Application Software
PROJECT TITLE : SMS VIA APPLICATION SOFTWARE USING VISUAL BASIC 6
OBJECTIVE: We want to send SMS through our Application Software, which will help us to write SMS with the keyboard and it will make a user friendly environment to send SMS.
METHODOLOGY:
We use a SMS Toolkit called ActiveX/COM component which provides SMS messaging functionality.
With this Toolkit, we can send and receive SMS messages via a:
1. GSM modem;
2. GSM phone;
Requirements:
1. We use visual basic 6.0 as our main programming language.
2. Access as database to store phonebook and our sent SMS
3. A DLL file called ASmsCtrl.dll .
4. A mobile connectivity Driver with data cable or Bluetooth Device
5. A USB supported multimedia mobile.
How it works:
GSM modems (SMS)
This is a fast and reliable device to send and receive SMS messages.
You can send plain text SMS messages, Unicode messages, ring tones and other advanced SMS messages using a GSM modem.
To send SMS messages using a GSM modem, use the GsmOut object. To receive, use the GsmIn object.
ActiveXperts recommends WaveCom GSM modems and MultiTech GSM modems.
GSM phones with AT+C modem command support (SMS)
GSM phones work similar to GSM modems. Connect your GSM phone to a PC or server via the serial port, USB port or Bluetooth.
People usually prefer to use a dedicated GSM modem rather than a GSM phone, because it is cheaper, faster and more reliable.
To send SMS messages using a GSM phone and SMS and Pager Toolkit, use the GsmOut object; to receive, use the GsmIn object.
GsmOut - Send SMS messages using a GSM modem (like MultiTech MultiModem GSM/GPRS USB Modem) or GSM phone (like Nokia 6310i);
GsmIn - Receive SMS messages using a GSM modem or GSM phone;
IMPORTANCE:
SMS is a very inexpensive. 160 characters take up as much room as a one-second-voice call .
Very fast. Messages are delivered immediately or when the phone is turned on.
Like e-mail, text messages can be stored and reviewed at a later date.
SMS enables users to send group text messages.
SMS notifies users instantly when a text message has been received.
Reliable. If the recipient’s mobile device is not powered on, the Short Messaging Service Center (SMSC) stores the message and later forwards the message on when the recipient’s device is available.
Delivers messages anytime, regardless of whether data or voice calls are in progress.
Can be easily integrated into Internet based applications or other data applications.
Easy to use.
SMS applications can be programmed using many programming languages, such as Visual Basic, Java, Perl or PHP. In contrast WAP applications must be implemented using WML.
Mobile device does not need a browser to receive and send SMS messages unlike WAP.
EXPECTED RESULT : Here we can type our message using keyboard on the software message interface and send it to the required mobile phone using the gsm modem or gsm phone.
