Yep, using the windows command Net Send you can. You will need to make a shell command to do this, which can be done through the command alias editor.
Go to the Command Alias Editor, and then click on the Shell commands tab. Create a new command, and give it a name, which will be your command line entry. You will be sending this message just to one other computer on the network, so this name should be the computer's name, or maybe the name of the person you are sending to. In the command box, type:
Net Send Computername (replace computername with the actual network name of the computer to send to)
In the prompt box, type:
Message: (or whatever prompt you want to see at the command line)
Then click ok, to get out of all dialog boxes. You will be prompted to save changes, accept.
Now, in AutoCAD, type the new command, then you will see "Message:" at the command line, type your message and hit Enter. Your message will be sent to the computer specified.
So now, you can set up several of these. Have all of your friends names as commands. Type Joe to send a message to Joe, Jane to send a message to Jane, etc....
Your network administrator must have windows messaging enabled ofr this to work!
