I am on a network with several computers on a workgroup, that workgroup is in mor than one room. I want to be able to send net messages in only my room. All the computers in my room are TITLES IT(#) # being any number 1-25, if i send the COMMAND net send IT* [message] will it send only to the people in my workgroup with the net name begining with IT? I want to test this theory but i nearly got introuble when i sent the net send * [message]command that sent the message to multiple rooms. Just a yes/no answerThe Syntax is

net send IT1 [message]
net send IT2 [message]
net send IT3 [message]
etc...

DOS cannot merge two different commands together.
the * makes DOS send the message to all users logged onto ALL domains.

i am only 16 so i wouldn't know if you can set it to go to One domain. but if you could i would imagine it would be something like:

NET SEND IT [MESSAGE]

any problems then email me: [emailprotected]I believe you have to send to a specific computer name or user name, or of COURSE everyone (as you FOUND out).

You could find out the specific user names or computer names and put those into a batch file to net send each one, with the message as a parameter.
