<Mumble mutter mumble> Michael, if you're a bit of a software hack, and if the source for DisplayBeep() is included (or you can get your hands on it), I have a suggestion. You could open the audio.device and send a quick "chirp" — nothing more than a fast level change would be necessary — then wait, oh, say 100 mSec or so before more or less picking up with the existing code. The short chirp or click would turn on your speakers for the real sound following shortly thereafter. It's a moby kluge, but it ought to work. Whatcha think? Rick
