Beep Macro Action

You can use the Beep action to sound a beep tone through the computer's speaker.

Note: The Beep macro action is not available in Access web apps.

Setting

The Beep action doesn't have any arguments.

Remarks

You can use the Beep action to signal the following occurrences:

• Important screen changes have occurred.

• The wrong kind of data has been entered in a control. For example, the user has entered numeric data in a text box control.

• A macro has reached a specified point or has completed its actions.

The frequency and duration of the beep depend on the hardware, which may vary between computers.

To run the Beep action in a Visual Basic for Applications (VBA) module, use the Beep method of the DoCmd object.
