Hi all,

I am developing some software for a handheld device (Windows Moble). I want the device to make a Beep noise. Now I know in VS .NET 2.0-3.5 framework you can just simply do Console.Beep() and walah! Anyone know how I can do the same for my handheld? I dont get the option .Beep() probably due to the fact that its a moble.

// For playing sounds
[System.Runtime.InteropServices.DllImport("coredll.dll")]
public static extern int PlaySound(string pszSound, int hmod, int fdwSound);

PlaySound("\\Windows\\Alarm3.wav", 0, 0x00020000);

That's how we do it on Symbol and Intermec devices running WM5.

I don't know if it works since I never used .net compact, but try:

Console.WriteLine("\a");

It works in normal .net
