Reserved words for module statements

You cannot use the following words as text parameters to a module statement. The words are either module definition keywords or reserved by the linker.

For example, you cannot use these words as the names of functions defined with the EXPORTS statement or to name a stub file with the STUB statement.

Although you should always enter module definition keywords in uppercase letters, the mixed-case and lowercase forms of these words are also reserved. For example, CONTIGUOUS, ContiGuous, and contiguous are reserved even though only the uppercase form is shown below.
