The various NTpage Clients communicate to the NTpage Server through the NTpage API functions. These functions are all contained in the DLL file called NTPAPI32.DLL.
The API is very flexible. You may make very simple calls to send a message to users or services already defined at the NTpage Server. Alternatively, you may specify all the necessary parameters to send "on-the-fly" pages to existing or new paging services or users. THERE IS NO REQUIREMENT THAT A USER BE SET UP AT THE SERVER.
This document will describe the functions available to the programmer through this DLL file. Please note that it is not necessary to directly call the DLL. Most applications can simply execute the NTPAGER.EXE program to quickly get the desired result. However, calling the DLL directly is a cleaner solution.
All functions will return a Long. All parameters in the functions are strings. These are all called by reference. However in Visual Basic you pass reference strings by using the ByVal parameter.
