Tony,

What I have done is to declare the data structures using 'extname' in the
source member that holds all my prototypes.
For example, 
  // PtItem record format                            
D PtRecd        E Ds          ExtName(PtItem)
D                                     Qualified      
D                                     Inz     


Then I can do a 'likerec' to 'PtRecd' and all is wonderful.
Since the source for the prototypes is '/copied' into all my sources, this
becomes available without any file declarations.
