Default Fill-in/Prompt

Is there a way I can have my fill-in prompt remember what the last fill-in information was? I hate having to re-fill in the information and go through 15 prompts to make changes to one fill-in. If there was a way for the fill-in to remember my last fill-in for that document, it would be great.

Any help is appreciated.

Several methods for repeating data are collected in the article at http://gregmaxey.com/word_tip_pages/repeating_data.html.

If you're referring to FILLIN fields, the default is for them to display the last-input value. If they're not doing so, that suggests someone has applied the \d switch to apply a default (including \d "" to display nothing).
