You have to have the TYPE for each record in each module, and then
common shared like this:


COMMON SHARED RecordName AS RecordType

or if its an array,

COMMON SHARED RecordName(1 TO etc) AS RecordType

You have to have the same common shared's in each module, and I *think
they have to be in the same order.
