SA32-0971-00

To send a message to a specific user, type the SEND command, the message within single quotation marks, and the USER operand with the user ID in parentheses.

Example
To send a message to user USER1, enter:
SEND 'Don't forget the meeting at 2:00.' USER(user1)

To send a message to two or more users, type the SEND command, the message within single quotation marks, and the USER operand with the user IDs separated by commas, and enclosed in parentheses. You can send a message to a maximum of 20 different users.

Example
To send the following message to users USER1 and USER2, enter:
SEND 'All you need is on CRSPK1.' USER(user1,user2)

To send a message to your own user ID, enter an asterisk instead of a user ID when specifying the USER operand.

Example
To send the following message to your user ID, enter:
SEND 'MAP has completed.' USER(*)
You then see displayed on your screen:
MAP has completed. YOURID
