You don't need to. Write a loop that instantiates any editable fields 
for you on preOpenCard and LiveCode will do the rest.

I don't know why that sort of auto-instantiation isn't just a property 
setting of fields, but just about every developer I know wrote that loop 
once and never thinks about it again.

That seems like a lot more work.
