I have a drop down list that exports text values to a text box when an item is selected. The export values are "templates" for users to fill in the blanks. When I fill in the blanks and leave the text box, it defaults back to the original export value.
Is there a way to make changes stick upon exiting the text box?
File is attached, feel free to nit-pick the rest of it as well. I'm a novice to the script part of all this.
TIA

A calculation is used to set the text value, so the calculation will aways take over. A different approach is needed.
