How disable Sound on VB project.

Lost User

:( On my VB project. I have several Buttons to click and some Warning messages may pop up. But the sound comming from the speaker is anoying. Also i use GotFocus() and jump from one textfield to another. Everytime after the keypress the sound comming out from the speaker and distract the user. Is there any way to turn that sound event off? Thank for your advise. David -- modified at 19:49 Wednesday 12th October, 2005

These are system generated events. You can't switch them off for one program or dialog box. If the user is annoyed at the sounds there are two alternatives: 1. go to the Sounds and Audio Devices control panel and alter the settings for the events you don't want to hear, or 2. turn the volume down. ...Steve

Thanks. I like the 1st one. But the thing is for the Warning event you need to hear the sound. Plus the user need to listen the music as well. Thanks for the advise. David

It sounds like you need to rethink what your doing here. If the system generates a beep for every invalid keystroke, maybe you should be preventing this event from happening at all. I don't profess to understand what your doing or why or what your project is all about. From your description, it sounds like your doing something that goes against Microsoft's recommended UI guidelines.
