I was hoping for a way to copy all the variables at once. When you have dozens 
of variables it can be time consuming. When I have more time I will explore 
doing "surgery" to the SYS_REPORTS3 table; I have had success in the past doing 
some changes for forms but have not really played with reports. Luckily, there 
are always several ways to do thing in R:Base. 😊

Javier,
 
You can copy a report/label variable from the Expression Builder, and paste it 
into another report/label.
 
Buttons for "Copy" and "Paste" have been added to the Expression Builders for 
the Form, Report, and Label modules, to allow users to copy and paste selected, 
either specific or all, variables.
 
Please note the "Copy" and "Paste" buttons are located next to the "Up" and 
"Down" arrow buttons, which reorder the location of a variable in the 
Expression Builder. You must select the variables first, which enable the 
"Copy" button.
 
In addition, you may also use [Ctrl]+[C] to copy selected
expression(s) and [Ctrl]+[V] to paste expression(s) while placing the mouse 
cursor over the expression builder window.
 
Very Best R:egards,
 
Razzak
