I have a list view that "beeps" when a single click on a line or move up and down with the arrows. This started to occur when I (unsuccessfully) tried to get message boxes to beep. If I turn off all sounds in via the control panel, I still get a beep, only it is harsh, like the old beeps that used to come from the PC's speaker. There are no "beep"-type instructions in the code.
all i know is that if windows tries to make a windows related beep, like an error or an exclamation, and if it cant detect working audio output ( when you turn speakers off in control panel) it will beep the computer buzzer.
cant help any further than that :-\
I created a second list view and get the same behavior. I even launched a program I wrote a while ago in Aurora and still see this behavior.
It's annoying. :-\
How did you try and get message boxes to beep? Perhaps you changed a system setting that affected list views instead.
I would have *chimed* in sooner, but it's never happened to me ;)

Any chance your using Vista?

Here is another possibility

Which doesn't happen if you include a manifest file.
The second option was just what was needed. I made the suggested change to the registry and the problem is gone.
I did make a change in the Control Panel to get my "question" message boxes to beep, but I don't recall anything else.
Thanks a lot.
Glad it was a sound solution ;D
Found searching Yahoo for "list view beeps", without the quotes.
