Default Repeating text

hello,

I checked the Calculate on Exit option so the cross-references will update
automatically but it doesn't work.
After I write the first field I have to do click right on mouse and Update
for all other fields where I would like to have the same text! And it works
just like this....is it normal?

We are currently using a form that requires us to type client demographic information repeatedly in the same document. Is there a way to type it once and get it to appear in all the other places?

Are you using REF fields? You must use REF fields, not additional form
fields.
