Annoying beeping noise from Excel

    Hi All

    I hope that this is the correct forum (I read the Charter!! :) )

    I have Excel 2007 and Windows 8.

    When I have multiple workbooks open my computer "beeps" every time I switch between Excel windows. Really annoying (that and the bloody roadworks outside my window for the past week... :mad:).

    I did a quick Google search, and I couldn't find anything that worked for me - but bear in mind that I am not very techie.

    I did check on the "Advanced" tab of the Excel options and the "provide feedback with sound" is unchecked.

    Any advice/solution would be much appreciated.

    Thanks in advance!
    SRG

    I love it when I can answer my own questions :)

    Control Panel - Sound - Sounds Tab - Under "Program Events" scroll to "Default Beep" and change the Sounds: to "None" - then save ..
