SUMMARY
=======

When you use the .MODEL directive including a language, the Microsoft Macro
Assembler version 5.1 and later automatically make all procedure names PUBLIC.
This is a feature of the assembler. This information can be found on Page 34 in

version 5.1 update manual.

There is no option that will make the procedures PRIVATE.

directive. Note that myadd will be PUBLIC.
