I have finished one dos-command program: WoL.exe MACAddress IPAddress, which can wake up those PC.
Now I am trying to write an application that could wake up those PCs in certain SMS collection:
1. retrive those MAC Address according to certain collection
2. Using WoL to wake them up
Any suggestions that could make my task easier? Thanks a lot.

Also I want to add this function to the "right click function", but I have no diea how I can do it. Any reference would be greatly appreciated.

You should be able to adapt the syntax used by pwstrain here: http://myitforum.com/cs2/blogs/pwstrain/archive/2007/05/21/wol.aspx

ctour, are you looking for free tools or 3rd party products?

At our company we use SMS Companion from www.smsexpert.com, works very well, was easy to implement. once setup it's fire and forget.
