Ok, that worked fine for me. But what I would like to know is 
whether or not it is possible to send the message out to all 
systems in a winblows domain that a particular user is logged 
onto. For example, If BJob was logged onto 3 systems in the 
domain I would like to send him a message on all three boxes. I 
would like to do this because as you can guess when dealing with 
anything over 2 users it becomes a real pain in the ass to keep 
track of their system. And what's more if they happen to upgrade 
the system in a year or two I will have to make changes to my 
scripts.
