    if I click cancel I get a loud, distracting and as far as I can see totally un-necessary beep through the computer sound system

    is this supposed to happen, if so why ?

    so far I have not experienced it anywhere else in the program

    if it is supposed to happen here/elsewhere can I switch it off, in registry or wherever ?

    just one accidental beep would be enough to mess up background audio processing and a lot of work..

    Doesn't happen at all with me.

    If I File > Exit or Alt-F-X, I don't get any prompt.
    I get your pop-up with a heading Closing Document pressing Ctrl+F4. No beep.

    What key presses or clicks get you to where this happens?

    I usually [force of long standing habit] click on the x on the top right to close

    if I have not done ctr+s first I get this dialog and then I get the beep if I hit cancel, admittedly this is not a sequence of avents likely to happen, I would at this point usually hit save or don't save, but if I have hit the x accidently I would click cancel [which is what it is there for ] then I get the beep

    you need backup on exit disabled I think, or the dialog will not appear

    confirm - it does not happen with ctrl+f4, only when pressing the x - glitch/bug then ?

    Just tried with the red (X), sweet as a nut.

    meaning no beep with the x, and backups not active - hum

    I smell a gremlin - I wonder if it is windows - I'd better reboot the machine
