Well, yes. I asked this same question here about a year (or more) ago, and was unable to confirm the information you offer. I had stumbled upon a (very brief ...mentioned in passing) reference to the HIDE keyword in the docs but was unable to get Listserv to accept (or perhaps actually "hide") any of the syntax I tried to give it. Thanks for the example. I'll give it a try. George Buckner Owner, Psyche-*
