In the Properties pane when viewing an FD form, the Default Value property is the value that is used in write operations if the item is not represented by a column in an SQL INSERT statement. This value is set by selecting the column row of the selected item in the FD form, then typing or selecting the value in the Default Value property. This property is only editable if the Edit default values option is selected in the File tab of the Options pane. See Defining Default Values for more information.
