How to stop the bell ringing?

[WSinc]

Hello;

In my debugging output, sometimes it encounters a character that "rings the bell."

Is there a way to prevent this, or at least mute it? Of course I can turn down the volume,

but maybe it would better to isolate the problem instead.

Which HEX charcter would that be, and why would that appear in formatted output?

I thought formatted output should produce only printed characters, at least if I am printing

numerical stuff.

I think that bell character is CHAR(7).

Any idea how that would creep into my output stream?

It isn't deliberate - - -

Try to debug your code, and find write statement which causes problem. Then try to write it not to console but string and use index(string,char(7)) if it occurs and at which position.

If the occurence of beep is random I incline to problem of your computer - Overheating, problem with hardware, virus.
