I want to create a desktop application from where I can send SMS when windows phone 8 is connected to desktop. Is it possible? If so, how can I achieve that? What APIs I need to use?

Answer 1

You cannot send an SMS completely programmatically in Windows Phone. In order to get somewhere close to that, you can use the SMS Compose Task to show a new page with a message already entered.

Also, I cannot be completely sure here, but I don't think that a WP application can connect with a computer through USB. The APIs are usually quite restricting for the developer on WP.
