In my sms apllication, user has to send msg like "stock infy" where stock is keyword and kannel passes it to proper sms-service. But, in USSD, user has to dial some number, lets say *123# What should be my sms-service configuration. Will USSD send value "123" in user data parameter or in service code parameter. I want to make some service, how to go about it. Shridhar Raju
