Thread: Network Talk tool help

The question is:

What i need to know is how i can put a variable into a function..which is System("");

but for a more detailed question please read on below

Hi im new to C++ but do know (html,asp,php,mysql,javascript) all the major internet ones so i have a coding background. My question is that im trying to make a basic program to later become more in depth but what it is to do is take a typed in message then send it to another computer but before even getting to this far i have stummbled. im using the command

Code:

System(" .... ");

what i need inside the system command is

Code:

net send pcname string

In case your lost already this is what i have already

Code:

  
#include <iostream.h>
#include <stdlib.h>

int main(void)
{ 
  char string[256];
  char string2[256];
  cout<<"Please enter your Message to pcname:";
  cin.getline(string, 256, '\n');
  cout <<"You entered: "<<string;


  cout <<"\n\n";
  system("net send pcname" <<string);
  system("Pause");
  return 0;
}

its getting the bit in the system part to work
it should basically read

Code:

System("net send pcname HELLO WORLD");

HELLO WORLD being whatever string is.

After all that what i need to know is how i can put a variable into a function..which is System("");


Sorry if ive confused anyone but any help will be MUCH appreciated

Thanks
