Dear @amen13
You have to rename the column header from constraints to constraint, this will fix the issue.

Hi @amen13,
I've tested the file uploaded by @rassam, and the constraints seems to work as expected.
I've tested it here.

Can you clarify which part is giving you problems?
Thank you,

I want to restrict the digit which means on the text part the data collectors has to be fill only one digit(0 or 1 or 2....). but still it accept whatever you write (number) i.e still there is no restriction digit. Please see the form which i uploaded today.
Dear @amen13
If you want the text to accept only 0,1,2 values, the constraint should be in this form: regex(.,'^[0|1|2]{1}$' )

Hi @amen13
The initial error in your form was the name of the constraint field (you had a typo there).
@rassam kindly helped you fix it.
I have checked both the file he uploaded
And the latest one you uploaded.
I tested both of them on Enketo, and they work as expected (only allowing to enter a single digit value).
Note that:
- initially some of your variables allowed for double digits, and @rassam preserved this requirement in the first reply;
- the condition "and (.>=0)" in your constraint field is redundant.
FYI the '{1}' is actually redundant; '^[0|1|2]$' would suffice.
