SYMPTOMS
When you attempt to make your computer beep by pressing ALT+7 (on the numeric keypad), a box character appears in your document instead.
CAUSE
The ALT+7 key combination produces a beep in Windows 3.1, but produces a character that has an ASCII value of 149 in Windows NT, which appears as a box character in Windows NT.
STATUS
Microsoft has confirmed this to be a problem in Windows NT and Windows NT Advanced Server version 3.1. This problem has been corrected in Windows NT Workstation and Windows NT Server version 3.5.
