I currently have system 6.0.2 running on my Mac SE.  I also have Suitcase II.
When I go into Suitcase II and look at the sound files available, they show:
Simple Beep, Monkey, Boing, and Clink-Clank.  These are the same as when I go
into my control panel and go to the "Sound" panel.  When I go into my
Sound panel and test simple beep, it has the classic, "bright" beep sound of
the Mac.  HOWEVER, when I play the "simple beep" from the Suitcase II sound
file I get a nicer, softer beep.  I want to put this new "soft beep" in as my
default system beep, but nothing I do (including renaming the beep sound in
Suitcase II and re-booting) changes my System's beep sound!

What am I doing wrong?  Do I need some sort of sound moving application to
change the system sound?

Thanks for any help that you can provide.
