Question:

I'm having a problem with n3MsgSend not working. The function acts like the message is sent, (i.e., it returns a 1), but the user doesn't see it.

Answer:

Your users have to be running NWPOPUP.EXE to see the sent message in Windows.

Another Question:

I'm Using WinBatch 97d for Windows 3.1 with the NetWare 3 Extender DLL. When I do a n3MsgSend (Server, Msg, Recipient) the recipient recieves the message, but the popup box says the message came from SUPERVISOR, thus disabling the REPLY option. I'm not logged in to any server as SUPERVISOR, nor as an supervisor equivalent. I'm a normal user. Any idea how come?

Answer:

The script cannot receive messages. The intent of the function was to send system messages (System going down in 3 minutes, etc) not expecting a reply.
