i have win me, and am trying to use the net send command, on a home network, using the run command. i would like to know if i am doing the command correctly: (the other computers name is family)
net send family HEY
is that it, or is something wrong? i am receiving the error that the send command does not exist

Try checking to see if the OS recognizes the command -
net /?
See if the send command is supported.
If it is, try-
net send ?
for info on syntax

Also the net commands use the NetBIOS protocol...

What you want to do is:
1)click on start
2)@ run type in
3)net send "computer name here" Hi how are you doing?

p.s. do not put in the quotes just the computer number

if you don't know what the name of the computer is simply right click on My computer and select properties. click on Network Identification and it should tell you.
Good luck
Dria.

Whoops, sorry I let ya hang on this net send issue. I would go ahead and open a command prompt and type net help. It will display a listed of supported net commands. Like one of the previous people suggested, check to see if net send is listed in here. Good Luck.
