Thanks Harrison !!!
SELECT char(7); works excellent to simulate a BEEP
with MySQL version 5.0.15 under Windows XP Pro.
It is a simple but effective feature for running scripts.

I would like to have a BEEP command at the end of the script to get
a signal that processing the script is finished. Looked in the
manual, but couldn't find it. Does such a command exist ?
My version is 5.0.15 under Windows XP Pro.

While there is no beep command, you can possibly get it to beep by
selecting the character code for a terminal beep (this is what the
mysql client uses internally)
Try out:
SELECT char(7);
And see if it makes a beep for you. It should if the mysql client
can make the beep on a syntax error.

Harrison
