Abstract

A communication system has a base station having memory for storing information within a plurality of information files relating to a plurality of information services. A receiver receives an information service request for requesting information within at least one of the plurality of information files from a selective call receiver. A transmitter transmits the information requested from within the at least one information service file to the selective call receiver. The selective call receiver includes a generator for generating the information service request and a transmitter transmitting the information service request. The selective call receiver receives the information transmitted from the base station in response to the information service request and a display displays the received information.
