Change Column Data Type

I need to change the data type of a column in a table from Code(10) to Text(10). After changing the data type of the column I get the following error when trying to run reports/forms associated with the table:

The definition of column 'CostCentre' was changed after the object was saved.

Old Type: Code
New Type: Text

I found to fix this problem I need to go into each report and remove the Record global variable reference to the table and re-add it.

Is there some faster way of doing this? Is there any built in function to update all references linked to that table?

Thank you.
