You need SET FIELD(MyField). and yes you need a step for each field. Unless
you've got more then you could script a loop and get all names of fields in
a globalfield and then loop through the fields. But you need some extra
fields there. So I suggest you just start clicking...

If you are referring to repeating fields, there is a spot near the bottom of
the Specify Field dialog box where the repetition number can be set. The
number must be hard coded, so if you need to set 5 repetitions, you need 5
Set Field script steps. The alternative is to have a layout with the field
on it and use a loop with a counter and Go To Field [next] to move amongst
the repetitions.
