How about a new header, something like "PrivateHeaders" It takes no parameters, and all the keywords located after it in the list header are NEVER exported. Since the order of keywords in the list header is random, you can put all of the headers you want to be seen before the line * PrivateHeaders And put the ones you want to keep secret after this line. The only place the code needs to be modified is where the headers are exported, and the modification should be simply to quit exporting when this header is seen. Harold
