Configuring Word for Audible Feedback

Word allows you to set configuration options so that it provides audible feedback for various operations. To set up Word to use audible feedback, follow these steps:

1. Click the Office button, and then click Word Options. Word displays the Word Options dialog box.
2. At the left side of the dialog box, click Advanced.
3. Scroll through the list of options until you get to the General section. (Click here to see a related figure.)
4. Make sure the Provide Feedback with Sound check box is selected.
5. Click on OK.

You have now enabled the use of sounds. If you want to change the sounds Word uses, then do your tweaking in the Sounds applet of the Control Panel. (This is within Windows, not in Word itself.)
