I have not tested these:

1- does /copy work?
2 - define the bar code fields in a separate file and then use REFFLD on your various 30 source files?

It'd need a recompile, but thats ok, isn't it?

I have a bar code line with three bar codes in it that needs to be add to around 30 forms. The bar code is the same for all forms but. Things are not totally approved so I may need to move that bar code around or modify it. Therefore I would like to define the bar code once in one DDS then have it referenced by each form DDS., i.e. nesting. This way if I do need to change the bar code line, I do it in one place not 30.

Thanks,
