Hi,

    we've just done this for a customer. Steps were...

	1. create command file to dial up paging bureau and send text. This
	   command file placed in console$user_actions. Pager number was 
	   passed via filter as userdata, pager message was constructed using
	   system and message text (all passed as parameters to the command
	   file).

	2. create a pcm 'action' to run the command file passing event data
	   and user data

	3. create filters to trigger the pager action upon whatever event
	   takes your fancy. Pass pager number as userdata

I could post examples if you're stuck.
