default values in a field

[Guest]

Hi, I want to have "000" in a text field as default if someone doesn't enter
a text or a number in that field. The field is a text field and allows only 3
characters in it. I would like for it to default to three zeros. I tried and
it only allows me to put on zero as a default. How do I do this?

Since it's a Text field you need to put quotes around the default value "000".
