Task Plus Professional includes
two different ways in which you can communicate with other
Task Plus Professional users over the network. The first is
Broadcast Messaging which allows you to send immediate
messages to people currently logged in and who will receive
the message immediately and is best for urgent messages. The
other method is an Interoffice Email which can be sent to
users who do not have to be logged in at the time of the
message being sent.
To send a broadcast message select the Broadcast icon on
the tool bar. Select the user(s) to receive the message,
type your message and press send. For extra emphasis you can
even add a sound file to be played with the
message.

Message a window will pop up like the one shown right. The
