Hiya,

can anyone tell me how I can make the system speaker sound from within a VB application? This is not the same speaker as is controlled by the BEEP command, it's the one you can hear beep when you first start your machine or enter the CTRL+G character from within the command prompt. I'd like to be able to do it entirely from within the application, by which I mean I don't want to have a command script or a batch file sitting on my drive with the CTRL+G character in it, which I then call with SHELL. Is there an API call or something I can use, or is there something simpler?

Any help will be much appreciated,

Thanks,

Paul
