How would I give it a different name for each row in the table?

For instance if a field has the name: Cliuentname and you fill it with the name Smith als the fields with the fieldname Clientname will be filled with Smith Tony Op 25-10-2020 om 00:41 schreef 'Patti Jakusz' via RBASE-L: No, it is blank, a PDF Text field. It is in the detail section. Users download the PDF report and are supposed to be able to fill in the field. but when they fill it in for one client, it duplicates itself for all the clients.

I have a PDF Text Field and a bunch of PDF check box fields. When we type a date in the text field, it duplicates itself across all the rows in the report. The check boxes work just fine. But my text fields all duplicate. I sent a snip of the report, cutting off the client names. We sometimes were able to open the reports in Word and got them to work that way, some of the reports (like this one) get completely scrambled by Word. We tried opening using Adobe, edge Browser, Chrome browser, Firefox browser and Word. Any suggestions to get to be able to use this as write-able document?
