What if you run the API that the Alert tool uses to play the sound? Or, would it fire without a media player if you tricked the system into thinking it was a system sound vs. a special one?

If you do a command line to a .wav file it opens a media player to do it. I haven't found any command line switches to do it "silent" pun intended. Thanks for the email...

So if you wanted to have the client welcome the user when they open a form, for instance, you could have an AL that does a command line call to a .wav file on an accessible server. If you open your Alert tool, you'll notice that you have that ability within the tool to specify any .wav file as your notification buzzer. Not sure how that would work with MT - haven't tried it.
