Herman - In the EOD version I found I can add or
change sounds. I don't understand your issue and it
must be because you're using the RT system which I
don't have. Would like to understand the limitations
here
since I'm going to be using the realtime
version as soon as I have to renew in a month or so.
For what it's worth and for others who run
an EOD alerts system you can code your own
sound file.
Best regards
JOE
A clip from and EOD alerts file that a friend of
mine wrote.

// 1 for stop and reverse, 0 for stop

AlertIF
imho The Alert() is overkill for a simple sound function;
we need a
simple afl Sound() that works unconditionally under "all"
conditions
and at "all" times, i.e. regardless of chart position,
barsrequired,
state of several arguments, etc. Ideally it should have
soundfile
buffering so that you don't miss a second sound triggered during
the
same afl pass.
I emailed a suggestion to support for a simple
Sound(). If you too
think this is useful please email your support for
such a function.
Adding sounds to your RT/AT system is a natural
progression and even
a requirement. Once you have sounds working you will
never again work
without it: it is the only possible eyes-off connection
you have with
your trading system.
Sounds are underutilized in
AmiBroker simply because users are turned
off by complexity and problems;
they give up and don't want to waste
too much time on it.

regards,
herman.

This only happens every few days. Normal most of the
