Applying Same Effect to Multiple MovieClips

Hi, I was just wondering as the title says, what is the correct/best way to apply the same effect (reflection) to multiple movieclips, using actionscript?
It seems wrong having to copy multiple instances of the set up code, or is that the only way to do it?

Thanks for any insight on this.

Depends, if the movieclips are on the stage in the same time you will need a new instance of flasheff and pattern for each movieclip, otherwise you you don't need to define again the same pattern.

What about duplicating the movie clip which has the FlashEff applied, then replacing the text or the instance within the new duplicated movieclip?

Yes this is possible and if you will duplicate the movieclip and change the text (don't forget to embed it again) or the instance of the movieclip from within the duplicating movieclip everything will need to work without any problem.
