I have made a fill in form and im trying to see if it will re set the fields
after the user is done . As of know the if the user saves it will keep the
tex in the document. Im looking to see if it will reset on its own.

Save the form as a template and then have the user use File>New to create a
new document from the template each time that a new form is required. Then
no resetting is necessary.

That's not how forms are supposed to be used. The empty form should be saved
as a template, and new documents should be based on that template by
clicking File > New. They'll automatically open with all the fields empty
(unless you created some default text in the template).
