Sometimes I want to store my SMS. To send them straight to the archive is much to complicated and seems to take much time. Even if some great patches for this problem were created (thanks Riza )

Therefore I wrote a small programm that should solve that problem. The intention of SMS2TXT is this. It stores multiple SMS into one huge TXT file. So you can use Microreader or any TXT-Viewer you want to open that file and view the content. It was also created to handle multi-part-SMS (you know - the splitted SMS)......

It works like this:

First you must use s25@once to download the SMS from the SIM card to the programms storing folder. The folder where all the SMS are downloaded is ....\s25atonce\config\SmsEingang. Copy this folder to root directory c:\ and rename it from SmsEingang to SMS.
Start SMS2TXT.EXE and it should open the first message.

It displays the total count of all messages, the number of the one you currently view, the name and number of the person......

While running the programm:
press [x] to Export the SMS to C:\EXPORT.TXT
press [+] (from number block) to view next SMS
press [-] (from number block) to view the last seen SMS
press [q] to quit programm
press [o] for export options ------------- There you'll see a sub menu with 5 export options, selectable by pressing the number [1-5], number [0] goes back to main menu

Hope it'll help some people out there - and well YES there will be NO further development. Maybe I'll translate from german to english but not more. Maybe some people find it usefull and make a better version with graphical menu, more export options.......
The source code is included (QB4.5) also a compiled EXE version. Use it for free make a further development, maybe sell it but please take respect to the author - ME

-----------

remove txt extension, extract with your favourite zip unpacker
 
Maybe Win 2k and XP don't use the "dir /b /od > liste.dat" command anymore

But try this

create c:\sms\liste.dat
and add some lines in that file
run the programm
then switch back to "Windows OS" and open folder c:\sms
Is there liste.dat and liste2.dat file in that folder?

In fact it's a stupid* programm I only wrote because I got more then 1500 SMS stored in s25@once and I wanted a programm that quickly views and quickly stores that files. I think some programmers here can do the job much much better.
If there are still problems ask me please

* why stupid?
First it's written in QB and therefore it does not support LFN (long file names) - just to "support" that feature I let Windows OS do all copy actions via batch files that are temporary be created. There would of course be other ways via LFN drivers but they run not stable and I use them only on my 486/66 MP3 Player. Back to issue!

This programm is still beta phase and I think there's really NO further development (you can see it if you open the source code - all comments are in german, there's no SUB programm area, no variables were definated, some parts are commented, no introdution (do we need that?).....)
