The BEEP statement produces a beep sound through the sound card.

Syntax

Description

BEEP can be placed anywhere to alert the user that there is something to do or an error has occurred.
QB64 produces the actual "beep" sound through the PC's sound card, to emulate QBasic's beeping through the PC speaker.

QBasic/QuickBASIC

Older programs may attempt to produce a BEEP by printing CHR$(7) to the screen. This is no longer supported in QB64 after version 1.000.
- You may have to replace instances of PRINT CHR$(7) in older programs to the BEEP statement to maintain the legacy functionality.
