Syntax

DosBeep( ulFrequency, ulDuration )

Parameters

ULONG ulFrequency (input)
The frequency in Hertz (Hz) of the beep to be generated. In the range of 0x25 to 0x7FFF (37 to 32767).
ULONG ulDuration (input)
The duration of the beep to be generated. In milliseconds.

Returns

APIRET rc

Sample Code

#define INCL_DOSPROCESS
#include <os2.h>
#include <stdio.h>    /* For printf */

if(DosBeep(400, 300)) /* Beep a 400 Hz tone for 0.3 seconds */
{
    printf("Invalid frequency to DosBeep()\n"); /* In case of error, should not */
}                                               /* be called now when the       */
