No, your problem is completely different. And there is no principle
involved.

You seem to be unable to find the "Default Beep" in the Sound control panel.
Obviously, if you cannot do that, and if Default Beep is configured to be
None, there is nothing you can until you learn how to assign a sound to
"Default Beep".

I have no problem finding "Default Beep" in the Sound control panel.

So I would appreciate it -- it just good netiquette -- if you would limit
your discussion of that problem to the thread where you started it, rather
than derail other threads with your unrelated problem.

For anyone who would like to respond to John, see the thread "Beep not
working".

Maybe the thread where I jumped in, "Beep not working".

Yeah, it's the principle of the thing for me too. I know it should
work, but for months (off and on when I see a hint or tip, like this
thread) I've never been able to find anything to get it to work!!!

I have one macro that a co-worker runs once a week and it takes 10-12
minutes to complete and I'd like to use a beep to signal successful
completion but I guess the message box will have to do until the
mystery is solved.

PS - I think I've tried the Application.EnableSound = False/True with
no success, I'd have to look at my notes I'm keeping on the issue.
