SET BELL


Syntax:     SET BELL on/OFF/(<expL>)

Purpose:    To toggle sounding of the bell during full-screen
            operations.

Usage:      The bell sounds in the following instances:

            .  You enter a character at the last position in a GET.

            .  You attempt to enter an invalid data type into a GET.
               The data type is controlled by the data type of the
               field, memory variable, or by the PICTURE template.

            Note that you can sound the bell explicitly using the
            command:  ?? CHR(7).

Library:    CLIPPER.LIB
