Hi Rex.

>I need to be able to add a field defined in the Field Repository to all tables. If I add the field programmatically, will SDT adjust the related view the next time I run SDT?

No, but you can code that. The RedefineAllViews method of SDT.SCX does the heavy lifting:

set path to <directory for SDT files>\SOURCE 
open database <database name>
do form SDT with , dbc(), , .T. noshow name oSDT
oSDT.RedefineAllViews('<table name>', .T.)
oSDT.Release()

In SDT 6, it's a little different, since the code has been moved from the form to an object:

open database <database name>
oMeta = newobject('DBCXMgr', ;
  '<directory for SDT files>\SOURCE\DBCXMgr.vcx', ;
  '', .F., '<path to DBCXREG for database>')
oSDT = newobject('SDTDBUtilities', ;
  '<directory for SDT files>\SOURCE\SDTManagers.vcx')
oSDT.RedefineAllViews('<table name>', oMeta, .T.)
