Sending an SMS Message from Windows Mobile 6

Programmatically sending an SMS message from your Windows Mobile is fairly simple these days.

You’ll need the WM6 SDK. Start a new Visual Studio ‘Smart Device Project’, add a reference to Microsoft.Windows.PocketOutlook, then use the following code…

using Microsoft.WindowsMobile.PocketOutlook;

..and..

public void Send(string to, string msg) { if ((to != string.Empty) && (msg != string.Empty)) { SmsMessage message = new SmsMessage(to, msg); try { message.Send(); } catch (Exception ex) { MessageBox.Show(ex.ToString()); } } }

Job done…
