SMS Connection in .Net

[Guest]

Is there a namespace, reference or other include that would open allow me to
connect to our SMS database. We post queries as reports to the web so we
need to get the list of available queies, and interrogate them for there
contents before running them.

We have done this in old ASP but we are looking for a more efficient way to
do this since we are doing a complete redesign of the system.

Hi Ryan,

Welcome to the MSDN newsgroup.

As for connecting to SMS database, based on my understanding, there is not
built-in classes/components in the .net framework fundamental library
concentrating on this. Generally, this depend on the server application's
exposed programming interface. Not very familiar with SMS server, however,
if it has exposed some public programming interfaces such as SOAP
webservice, COM objects or .net specific components, we can use them to
communicate with the SMS server. In .net framework, there has natural
support for web access(over http ...) , webservice call and .net remoting
....

BTW, as you mentioned that you've done the communication in one of your
classic ASP applications, how did you do the work in it? Maybe we can look
for some similiar approaches in .net world according to the ones used in
your classic ASP application.

Please feel free to post here if you have any further questions.
