Peter,

Why you ask this when you don't want to use VBNet this in this newsgroup. Is
than the newsgroup for CSharp, JSharp or VC not more the newsgroup where you
ask this depending on the language you are using?

There are not much replacements that I know.
The If, Else, + - * \ / ^ are complete the same as in VBclassic, VBA and
VBS.

Or do you mean commands as OrElse and AndAlso, there are not much like that.

I think that it is almost impossible to write a program without those I
showed first.

How do you do that?

This is one sample it's in C#.

using System.Runtime. InteropServices ;

class Message
{
[DllImport("kern el32.dll")]
public static extern bool Beep(int Frequency, int Duration);

public static void Main()
{
Beep(220, 250);
}
}

The Beep API doesn't always work on all PC's , depends how the PC is setup.
The
MessageBeep is more reliable:

Public Enum MessageBeepEnum
Simple = -1
OK = &H0&
Hand = &H10&
Question = &H20&
Exclamation = &H30&
Asterisk = &H40
End Enum

Public Declare Function MessageBeep Lib "user32"(By Val Beep As
MessageBeepEnum ) As Int32

Hope this helps you.

Hi Cor

I need ONLY the function or sub in VS.VB that makes the same like in
earlier times the "beep()"
to give the user the info, there is a wrong input for example.

What is the new "beep()"-function.

I dont want use "beep", I want use the new function, the name i am looking
for

Peter,

There was yesterday a long discussion thread about the same.
You are doing yourself not well by not using the Microsoft.Visua lBasic
Namespace

http://msdn.microsoft.com/library/de...rykeywords.asp

Without any restriction can this namespace by the way as well used in C#.

There is no managed replacement available. BTW: I strongly recommend to
rethink the decision to use only a part of Visual Basic .NET.

The idea was not use OLD (OUTDATED) parts of VB.NET, that are cutted in next
release by microsoft.
