Controlling sound in dev env.

I'm not sure if this is the 'right' place to post -- I'm just getting used
to the VB newsgroups, but I need assistance and am hoping I can either get
the assistance or some help in pointing me the right direction.

In any case, I have a basic question regarding the actual development
interface, and in being able to control the sounds.

The example:
I use:
Microsoft Visual Basic .NET, Microsoft Development Environment 2003
..NET Framework 1.1

When I use Search and search for something like "!=", a message comes back
letting me know it isn't found, for lack of a better paraphrase, and it also
produces a loud sound along with this... a warning sound or such.

That sound is something I'd like to be able to turn off. That's what I'd
like to know.
Is anyone able to help me with being able to modify sounds in the
development environment?

Thanks for any help that can be provided!

Have you tried turning down system sound volume and/or the volume on your
speakers? I ask because I use Visual Studio .NET 2003 all the time, and any
sounds it produces are far from loud. I have no problems hearing other
sound.
FYI, another group where you can post IDE questions is:

Go to Start-Settings-Control Panel-Sounds and Audio Devices->Sounds. There
is a section for Microsoft Development Environment. Try toggling the sounds
associated with the events to see if one of them apply to the search dialog.

Hi, I'm trying to figure out what is the most pythonic way to interact with a generator. The task I'm trying to accomplish is writing a PDF tokenizer, and I want to implement it as a Python generator. Suppose all the ugly details of toknizing PDF can be handled (such as embedded streams of arbitrary binary content). There remains one problem, though: In order to get random file access, the tokenizer should not simply spit out a series...

I'm putting together a C# .Net forms project on win2k. The application requires some sort of horn sound. I've never implemented any audio in .Net, so I'm not sure how best to accomplish this. It's an application that works with a wireless barcode scanner, in a warehouse environment. The user could be potentially 20 or 30 ft. from the PC. If the user scans something improperly, the app should sound a 'horn' to notify the user. I'm trying...

Is there any C library out there dealing with the PC speaker? I have always wanted to play around with it and make it do noises! What did all those old games use? They had advanced sound effects using this primitive sound output. Surely not all of them hacked around with Assembler? Or did they? I have tried asking people and searching for such a library/document for a long time without any luck whatsoever.

Overview: Windows 11 and 10 have less user interface control over operating system update behaviour than previous versions of Windows. In Windows 11 and 10, there is no way to turn off the Windows Update option using the Control Panel or Settings app; it automatically checks for updates and installs any it finds, whether you like it or not. For most users, this new feature is actually very convenient. If you want to control the update process,...
