Hi everyone,

I have four computers on a network. I want to create a program that, when a button is pressed on one computer, a message is displayed on another computer on the network. Only one computer will have the button(s) interface and only one will receive the messages.

Does such a program already exist? And if so, where would I get it? I've tried Google, but to no avail.

Thanks.

You could even create a batch file containing:

net send 123.123.123.123

and then just create a shortcut to it.

Argh, I used to know how to do this kind of internal Windows messaging thingy. Can't remember though, but I think it had something to do ith knowing the IP address, and you could send an instant message.
