Do the two calling tables run concurrently (CALL) in the same report/clerk
instance?  If not, then declare global in both calling tables and extern in
the called table.

If the two calling tables -do- run concurrently via CALL in the same
report/clerk instance, I'd probably move the declaration to automatic and
declare all other instances as extern.
