C# warning beep!!

hugejeans · 2008-04-10 09:59:21

ok, I'm receiving a warning beep from the serial port event that data has arrived. I then print the data to a rich text box. Anyone know how to turn this unimaginably annoying beep off!?

System.IO.Ports.SerialPort? The DataReceived Event? Does it happed for other apps using the serial port? Are you checking for errors?

Only one other person seemed to complain about it over on the MS forums, and he was told to disable the beep!

Good luck!

Cheers fasty,

I didnt want to go down the path of diabling the beep because that would have to be done on every computer the app was placed on. But after alot of googling it seem thats the only way to go (at least to save my sanity!)
