How to add attribute default value to pre existing products?
I created a Global Text area attribute and i added a default value into the text field. The problem that im running into is that the default value that i added is not showing up in the products that i created before i created this attribute.
The text field shows up in the previously created listings, but the default information is not showing up..

Unique Value No
Values Required yes
Input Validation for Store Owner none
Apply To all products
Use in Quick Search no
Use in Advanced Search no
Comparable on Front-end no
Use In Layered Navigation no
Use In Search Results Layered Navigation no
Use for Promo Rule Conditions no
Position 0
Enable WYSIWYG yes
Visible on Product View Page on Front-end yes
Used in Product Listing no
Used for Sorting in Product Listing no
Any suggestions?

Like i said at the beginning, i have already added the attribute set. Anyways, i found a solution to the problem..
Inside manage products, there is a action called “Update Attributes”. Select all the products that you want to update and then select Update Attributes and add all the new information in.
