Is there a way to turn off the 'navigation' sound w/ automation code.?
This is the clicking sound when IE page loads. I know I can turn this
off on my own computer
thru Control Panel - but I need to do this in my application.
Note-the following only turns off dialog boxes:

oie=createobject('internetexplorer.application')
oie.silent=.t. && this does not turn off sound.

Mike,
I curious why you believe you should override the user's preferences? If the
user doesn't like the sound, explain to them how to shut it off, otherwise
leave their choices alone.

Yes, you have to hide the control:
