Winpopup messages

I need to build an application like winpopup message.

Note : The machines which exchange messages over the network run WIN95.

They should be able to receive and send messages to Machines, users or groups. And also receive messages from other machines which run the Winpopup.

It works with NT. However both machines use win95.

How could I use Mailslot, as winpopup does ?

Mirkwood

It works on win95 too as the title says.

Mirkwood - I tried your solution :
"Sends message from NT 4.0 to NT 4.0 or Win95 running winpopup"
from http://www.geocities.com/SiliconValley/Peaks/1797/

But the machine doesn't have NT, It's logged on NT.

Could get me a hand using MailSlots. I'd like to build an application to send and receive messages from Winpopup as https://www.experts-exchange.com/jsp/qShow.jsp?ta=vbcontrols&qid=10095936

Hey, could get me a hand with Mailslot.cls.

Do you have a project example ?

I travelled a lot on geocities and i still don't get it.

Mirkwood

dim clsMailSlot as class_MailSlot
set clsMailSlot = new class_MailSlot
call clsMailSlot.Create("yourmailsot")
call clsMailSlot.MailWrite("Hello, how are you")
set clsMailSlot = nothing

In other process
dim clsMailSlot as class_MailSlot
set clsMailSlot = new class_MailSlot
call clsMailSlot.Create("yourmailsot")
Debug.Print clsMailSlot.Mailread()
set clsMailSlot = nothing
