Hi,

I need to make use of the notfication services for notifications in my
application.
The delivery method is either EMail or SMS.
According to the documentation, SQL supports SMS as a delivery method.

However, I can't find any sample or documentation which corroborates the
above.
Please could someone point me in the right direction.

Or do i have to create a custom delivery method (build my own .NET
component) and use this to send SMS?

Hi Don -

SQLNS comes with an delivery channel for SMTP, but not for SMS. You
send notifications via SMS, but you'll need to develop your own custom
delivery channel to do it.

There are some companies that offer a gateway to SMS. Google for SMS
and SQL Server Notification Services to locate them.

Here are a couple of threads that may help...
