What does that mean? What reg file are you speaking of? My "reg file" is
an export from my registry (plus an editing of it to eliminate the wav
file name). What is set in your registry (not your reg file). If it's
blank then it should show as "none" in the Control Panel applet.

Sorry to not be clear.... The only entries in my registry that point to =
the qopen file were the two entries that you spoke of that were in your =
registry.=20

I realize that I can manually edit the registry to resolve the issue, or =
that I could rename or delete the qopen.wav file, but that still =
wouldn't explain to me if it is a Windows issue, or a issue that has =

Thanks for your suggestions and offering to help, but I am still trying =
to determine if this issue is isolated to me, or if others running Q2007 =
are experiencing the same thing.

Thanks,
Bert

You may not be able to manually edit the registry. That's why you should
try. You may get an error message and that would explain what the
problem is. You could always send it back.

I fail to see how this would be a Quicken problem at all from a
programmers standpoint. Quicken has a toggle for sounds or no sounds. If
sounds are set on then Quicken looks up in the registry via that key and
plays that sound for the specific events. Outside of that it's not a
Windows issue.

If the Control Panel: Sounds applet cannot change the registry entry I
would have hoped it would at least be smart enough to alert the user.
But it's quite possible that it doesn't check the error return after
calling SetRegistryKey (or whatever the function call is).

The Control Panel and the Sound applet are MS code. If they're not
working properly then talk to MS. Quicken is not involved here.

Yes it would be nice if others chimed in. I would but I don't have Q2007
and right now I'm busy with a move to Dallas...

I just edited the registry entry for the qopen.wav file, and the sound =
