A reserved word that does one of the following:

• Assigns a default value to a field.
• Says that for the duration of the computation of this formula, if a document does not have this field, act as though it does with this as its value.
• Allows you to assign values that provide dynamic defaults to fields.

DEFAULT variableName := value ;

Usage

This reserved word works in any formula.

Use DEFAULT once in a formula. If this keyword occurs multiple times in a formula, the first occurrence is effective and subsequent occurrences have no effect.

Note Pre-R6 behavior differs: if a formula contains multiple occurrences of DEFAULT, the last occurrence is effective.
