Once you set up a field for one content type it is available for any
other content type. If you mean, can it automatically show up in other
content types, then no, it can't. But it's easy to add. It shows up in a
dropdown list.

Subject: [support] CCK Common Fields

I'm looking to implement Drupal 5.3 and I'm going to be using the CCK to
create some different content types.

Two or more of my content types will have the same metadata field names
and types:
for example: date_created, date_modified, user_created, user_modified,
url

Is there a way I can set this up so that my content types will ALWAYS
get these shared fields ...
or do I just have to setup those fields seperately with each content
type I create?

Thanks!
                          Tom
