Remote file search using SMS

Due to exponential increase in the information transfer or communication using messages; Short Message Service (SMS) has become important. The efficient and easy to use techniques are being developed for SMS. In the last few years, SMS has made a big impact on the way of communication. Instead of communicating over the phone using voice, people prefer SMS for messaging as well as for information exchange. This paper proposes a method of implementing an extendable generic application which is used to search a file on remote desktop and mail it to user. Mobile users send required information through a SMS to a mobile gateway which then forwards it to the generic application. Using the information send by user, such file name, folder name or drive, email address of the user, the generic application automatically searches the file asked by the user on remote machine and mails it to the user on his email address.
