NetMessageBufferSend

[horn]

Hi,
does someone used the API function NetMessageBufferSend before?
I have problems to execute this function. I think I haven't set the parameter types correct, but I have almost every type tried.
Thanks,
Martin

hi Martin,

found this link [link removed; article no longer available]... is this the point?

greets!

No,
that will not help, because I'm using LabVIEW.
I like to use the NetMessageBufferSend, but I don't get any message windows on other computers which are in the same network are. Even on the same computer I don't get any message window. I tried all parameter types.

Could it be an access right problem? Read

thoroughly and you will see that only Administrators and Server Operators may execute this function on a
member Server or Workstation in a Domain. This is likely a limitation made to prevent message spam on Windows systems. Yes, on NT anybody could send you message boxes through the Windows network protocol and with NETBIOS over TCP/IP even people on the internet could do that if not properly blocked through a firewall and that was actually used to spam users.

Thanks,
This may be the reason for my problem.
