I am still working my way through ODK but have been very impressed with the
ability of it so far..........
I have a simple form for location audits with a single repeat group off the
primary instance...........all good everything is working but I have this
question. if my auditor does not complete the form and wishes to continue
working on the primary record it is very confusing to know what repeat
group to return to once they get back to it.
example would be
I would like to have my form name the repeat instances as such
- location AA
- (dining hall)
- (Kitchen)
- (Aid Station)
Can i use one the fields from the repeat group {sub-location} to name the
instance? This is only for clarity when returning to an un-finalized form.
Thanks for your help in advance.

Give it a try. I think it should work. Since it is a repeat group, you
can't just write ${height}, but need to use the ./height relative path to
refer to that element.
When working with repeat groups, be sure to test your forms after creating
at least 2 copies of the repeat group. Most problems will be because you
are using ${element} instead of ./element within the formulas in that
repeat group.

Has anyone been able to find a way to name repeat groups? I'm trying to do that as well (for example, for different years). Any help on this would be great!
