Disable Beep in Access (Internal speaker)

[homer2002]

Hi.

is there any way to stop Access Beeping every time a msgbox or "You are about to import loads a records" message appear.

I still need to see the warnings but the beeps are driving me crazy.

Unfortuantly too, I am at work so i can't run REGEDIT to disable the speaker.

Is there any other way that anyone knows of.
I am using Win NT Workstation 4.0

Are you able to adjust the speaker volume?

You would dislike using my applications for I 'add' beeps to all of my commands and also use custom wave files for more audio effects.

I cant turn the speaker down.

(Wish I could jam a screwdriver through the speaker)

BEeeeeeepp!

You can use Docmd.SetWarning = False to eliminate any warnings if you are importing in VBA, but you must turn it back on after the import to be notified of relevant errors.

wish i could.... problem is I need the warnings on. I turn them all off once I have finished deleloping......


To cut a long story short. I am sitting in the middle of a quiet office developing different databases and annoying about 20 people each side of me fun eh!

I'm sure there is an option in Tools -> options -> general.

Something like "Provide Sound with Feedback"

You can disable this - but I'm not sure if this will stop the beeps.

Failing that,

A pillow, carefully taped to the side of the computer to muffle

Mine's is never checked and I'm tormented by the Beep.

I suppose I'm just lucky at work not to have computers with speakers then

I have a little speaker in the bottom corner with a volume control - does that have any effect?
