Where two or more variables or tables have the same text, all the names can be included in the definition: the text need not be repeated in separate definitions. Up to 100 names can be specified in a label definition.

Alternatively, when a new variable or table is to be labelled with a previously defined text, the text can be copied. Table labels may be set equal to variable labels, and vice versa.

Tables using a variable for stub or banner will automatically pick up text assigned to that variable.

Examples of duplicate label settings:

bt #5,#5a,#27 = 'All who own typewriters',

v $15a=$14a,

vt #14 = $y10,
