Hello!
I'm asking for help on how to write a code for an application on Symbian OS C++ that sends an ordinary SMS to another mobile phone.
Any help or referral will be much appreciated.
(Symbian OS is not easy to work with at all) :?

thanks
I'm targeting the UIQ and later the series 60 devices.are there many changes regarding this specific API's between the different platforms ?
I thought that non gui related features would be quite similar ...

For the Nokia platforms, see this page for examples (besides those already part of the SDK): http://www.forum.nokia.com/main/0,,1_32_30,00.html

Look, for example, at the "SendAs" sample there for starters.

I'm targeting UIQ devices.
(In fact I'm using a P800 device)
To be honest, I'm new to Symbian OS and I need much help and resources and references.
I really appreciate keeping me in ur mind 😊
Thanks!

Can anyone help me? I'm trying to developp an application for UIQ devices (P800) to send a simple SMS message. Is there any examples? Does the TxtMTM have to do anything with my issue? Any help is much appreciated.
Thanks in advance!
