But I think that in the manual I added a way to test your setup without wasting sms messages.
From the command prompt there is a command that you can give to see if your system is receiving…"

Your app outputs text to console, that is returned to the calling application (FLSMS), which will take it and send it as an SMS. If there are unacceptable character codes then it won't work.
I am not an expert on SMS…"

Congratulations on your work.
Please make sure your java app returns an ASCII response not UNICODE or UTF-8.

Thanks, but since I will do all my parsing and and editing using VB code, I may not have a need for this functionality.
I sure will update this forum with success or failure.

- George,
Thanks for your exciting work around on the data collection with FLSM without the use of forms. I am trying to adopt your solution to my project and have been able to query and update my database by sending SMS to FLSM. The problem I am having is how to send back data to FLSM as a command line instruction. I noticed that from Kiwanja's reply you can be able to instruct FLSM to send SMS to a specific contact using xml formatting style.
Please help.
Ismail
