The more specific you are about what's going wrong, the more specific we
can be about possible solutions. Your use of position(..) looks right to
me. Your repeat_count should probably just be "${supervisuers_count}"
(without the quotes). Otherwise, be sure you're running the latest version
of Collect; older versions didn't support position(..). And again, the more
specific you can be, the better.
Best,
Chris

Hi Chris,
Thanks for replying.
The trouble I'm having is that it doesn't seem to refresh for each
repeat. When running the first iteration of the repeat I get:
Name of Supervisor # 1
Position of Supervisor # 1
that's great, but for the next iteration of the repeat also appears as:
Name of Supervisor # 1
Position of Supervisor # 1
I changed the repeat count to ${} instead of /.. and I double checked I'm
using 1.4. Any ideas?
Thanks again,

I am not sure why it's not working, but I have two suggestions:
Rename your field "pos" or something not to conflict with the function
name. Your existing name is probably fine, but it's always a gamble to name
something in a way that might conflict with a built-in function.
Move your "pos" field to be between the "begin repeat" and the "begin
group", so that it's directly inside the repeat rather than inside another
group inside the repeat. It could be that the position you're getting is
relative to that inner group somehow.
Best,
Chris

I would like to refer to the line number or repeat number for

entering a lot of information in a repeat group.
I tried this, but it sucks:

Putting the calculate between the repeat and the group did the trick.

And, that's something good for us to document. I didn't realize that
position(..) was sensitive to non-repeating groups.

But, since '..' is just an XPath expression, it makes sense that either
putting the calculate outside the nested group or using position(../..)
would be required.

Hello, is this thread still open? i have the same problem of bill.
my question is it possible to count the data from the csv file? here's my example
type name label appearance repeat_count
select_multiple machine hhmach_type name of machines search('machinedetails')
begin_repeat machine_repeat info each machine ${hhmach_type}
i got an error message java.lang.string cannot be cast java.lang.integer so
I tried to use int(${hhmach_type}) in repeat_count but the begin_repeat doesnt show.
hi @vans28 are you able to post your xlsform here? or can you use ASCII table on your different form worksheets and wrap the output in ``` before and after to make it show up like:
+---------+---------+
| Col1 | Col2 |
+---------+---------+
| Value 1 | Value 2 |
+---------+---------+
