How can i send sms to my friend?

I can't send sms messages to my friend after I upgraded to messenger 8 beta. What do i need to do?

When I had messenger 7.5 I had no problem sending SMS messages. Oh and my friend has a nextel phone.
Answer:

I suggest a fresh install of Yahoo! Messenger. First, a fresh install will ensure you have the latest build of Yahoo! Messenger. Also, a reinstall will write over any Messenger files that may have become corrupt and causing this SMS issue. Yahoo! just launched Yahoo! Messenger version 8.0 (non-beta, maybe a different build than you have now), which includes the ability to instant message with Windows Live (MSN) users, addition of plug-ins, integration of Yahoo! 360, Soundtrack, and Soundboard. For version 8, just go to http://messenger.yahoo.com, click on the ‘Get it Now’ button, and follow the installation process.
