Ron, Check out the DataBee DBATool. This reads an export file (created with the ROWS=N option) and allows you to manipulate the DDL of the objects within it, then output this DDL to either SQL scripts to recreate the schema, or HTML to document the schema. The tool is free with the unsupported version. You can get a copy at:
http://www.cool-tools.co.uk/Products/Downloads/dbatool020001.exe The documentation for this tool is currently at: http://www.databee.com/dbatool.htm But will be up on the Cool-Tools site this week, as it goes in to a full production release. If you do download this, and have any questions, contact me directly and I will see if I can help you out with it. FWIW *this* is by far the easiest way to do this, as all have you have to do is point and click (Not to mention the safest)..

FWIR, the easiest way to do this is to hack the exp views to just return these object names. I'm trying to find my notes on this, but if anyone has this documented, let me know. Thanks.
