Just a quick code snippet on setting the Default Text Value of a Single Line of Text field in SharePoint to a specific value.
1: // update Shared Documents list "Customer Name" field
2: SPList repDocs = childWeb.Lists["Shared Documents"];
3: SPField clientName = repDocs.Fields["Customer Name"];
4: clientName.DefaultValue = "foo";
5: clientName.Update();
