**** I think your best bet is to use the {STATE} command.  This will return
the value of 512 if the Reveal Codes is on.  You can use the following
commands to switch Reveal Codes off:

{IF}{STATE}&512~                {;}Returns 0 if Reveal Codes on~
        {Reveal Codes}          {;}Turns Reveal codes off~
{END IF}

Hope this helps -
