Emmitt,
I'm not sure I understand. Do you mean that I can: SET VAR MESSAGE = 'This is my message' And then issue NET SEND %MESSAGE%?

My question now is how do I customize the message by using R:BASE variables in the NET SEND command? NET SEND %RECIPIENT% From %FULLNAME%, %MESSAGE% Any ideas? Thank you! Claudine
