If you are the type that likes to give your workbooks a slant toward multimedia, Excel allows you to insert sound files in your worksheets. This is done in this manner:
You can later listen to your sound file by simply double-clicking on the speaker icon. You can also move the icon to some other place on your worksheet, as it appears to "float" over the actual contents of the worksheet. Simply click on the icon once, and use the mouse to drag it to a new location.

I use Win7 and Office 2007.
Microsoft's offer for me to upgrade to Win7 Win10, did the update. But the Win10 did not work right; the Start Menu would not open. Even seeking help could not solve the problem. So, I chose to return to the Win7 version. It was from there that the problem arose: the beep I had to save an existing file in Excel, disappeared. I wish I could take back the beep.
I hope you understand my difficulty and you can send me a step by step I set up my system and be happy with it running again to my liking.
Patiently await his return with instructions.
