Turning off number-key sounds

[Koksie]

I looked all over my Pro and the manual, but cannot find a way to turn of the sound of the number keys. Every time I start typing a phone number the sounds ring out and I want to turn them off. Can someone help me?

Ok, sorted it out with help from Treo Central. For those who want to silence the sounds as well:
I renamed the registry keys HKCU\ControlPanel\Sounds\Dtmf1 trhough Dtmf# to get rid of those annoying LOUD sounds.
To set the keypad to vibrate: Rename Sound to Sound1 and add a new String value with "*vibrate*".

thanks to frause from TreoCentral.

To turn Off your DTMF on your Treo PRO

I edit the registry

HKCU\ControlPanel\Sounds\Keypress
Find Script Beep mode, change 2 to 0.
Soft reset.

It works for me.

hello i am a little new to all of this. i was wondering if you could tell me which program you use to edit the registry and give me some pointers on how to complete the modification you mentioned above. the key beep annoys me way to much. thanks for your help in advance.

Use a program like total commander or PHM Registry Editor.

Go to:

[HKEY_CURRENT_USER\ControlPanel\Sounds\Keypress]

And change BeepMode to:

"BeepMode"=dword:00000000

Probably a silly question...but if I turn off the key sounds or turn them to vibrate - will it still send the tones when I press the button?

Yes it will! No problem what so ever ;)
