The syntax is a s follows:

NET SEND {name | * | /DOMAIN[name]| /USERS} message

where the name in {...} is the destination and message is ......the message

hope this helps.

"Net send * message text" will send to everyone.

Net send workstationname message text" sends to a particular machine.

Go to a command prompt and type net send /? to get a complete explanation of the syntax.
