Re: Annoying sounds in Word 2000 with Vista

Tech-Archive recommends: Fix windows errors by optimizing your registry



Sorry, Terry, I have no sound options for Office. I have options for CorelDraw,
AOL, NetMeeting and some others and Windows of course. I do have the Speech
Recognition and Photo Gallery.

In Vista, I see separate listings under the 'Sounds' tab for Windows,
Explorer, Office, Speech Recognition and Photo Gallery.

In the sound folder of Vista, at least with my computer, there is not one
sound for an Office application. I still use Money 97, the sounds are within
the > program options.

I don't have Vista, so I can't suggest a specific Vista solution, but the
current version of Microsoft Money was driving me crazy with various sounds
for *every single action* I took. I found that in Control Panel | Sounds and
Audio Devices in Windows XP there are specific listings (below the generic
ones) for sounds in particular programs. There are about a million for Money,
and since I didn't know what most of them meant (and kept getting beeps and
boops after turning some of them off), I finally just gave up and set every
single one of them to "(None)."

I have the same problem. The only 2000 application I have on this Vista
computer is Publisher. I get the annoying beep when I open a file. I can't
find where to turn it off. I suspect it is a registry fix. I also have
Publisher 97, 98, 2002, 2003 and 2007 on this computer, they don't make a
sound.

Thanks for the responses.

The Word 2000 is 'Dinasour' Word, then I understand it might not get
any solution/response to this issue.

Beeping sounds occurs when I click File I need to open, ... not clicking
'Opening Icon' at the top which I mistakenly stated in my original post.

In XP, I never heard Beeping Sounds, then it may be something to do with
'Public,' because Word 2000 I made in 'Public,' so that everyone can
access
and read. Because, mostly I've been using Word 2000.

Other than that, I LOVE so much that I hesitate to switch newer version of
Word, however I may not be able to keep if there is no solution to this.
Beeping sounds make me nervous and annoying, particularly during tiring
nites.

However, one more time I try before doing so the above, in MS Newsgroup if
there is NO solution found on this Board.

Thanks,

I suggest investigating why the error bleep is occurring rather than
disabling the sounds. It isn't making an error warning just to annoy you.

Hi:
I've been using Word 2000 with Vista and works really well as if it's
2007.

However, one thing over which I concern is that everytime I click an
'open
icon' at the top upon attempting to open folder/text I typed previously,
it
makes a distiguished and annoying sounds.

For this to stop, I un-checked 'make sounds,' < Option < F1, however it
is still the same, ... making annoying and squeaky sounds.

Wonder how to stop this, distiguished and annoying sounds?

Thanks for any help.
