Multiple calculated text fields

I am creating a document that has over a hundred rows to calculate (simple addition of five colums) meaning over a hundred text fields that I will need to do one by one.  Is there a way to do them all at one time like in Excel (Ctrl+d)? 

 

Thank you for your time and ideas!

You can use a script to apply a calculation script to multiple fields, yes.

But do these fields have a consistent naming pattern, like Text1, Text2, Text3, etc.?

And also, do they all share the same calculation formula?
