You should be able to enter more than 4 digits, but if you do and try
to swipe, there should be an constraint message that shows up. There
is no way to restrict the input box itself to 4 digits. File a feature
request or hire a developer if you want to have that feature.
If you aren't getting the constraint message, then try making prompt a
string with appearance "numbers". The form XML will look like this.

Hi Yaw and Mitch,
I'm trying to constraints on the length of an integer field and both
regex(.,'[A-Za-z0-9]{4}') and regex(.,'{4}$'), allow inputs more
than 4 digits. Can you please let me know how I can restrict the length to
exactly 4 digits?
Thanks,

Hi Yaw,
Thanks for the speedy response. I made the change, and unfortunately,
now it
doesn't seem to restrict the number of digits on input.
Here is the constraint I used, in xls forms. Can you please confirm
that I
have the correct formatting?
regex(.,'[A-Za-z0-9]{2}')
Thanks so much.

Hi Yaw,
I have a question about the regex constraint you mention below. I
tested
this out (as a constraint in xls forms) and found that it restricts
the
number of digits correctly but only allows input that begins with
letters.
I'd like to be able to restrict to alphanumeric input, regardless of
whether
it begins with numbers or letters. Is this possible? Can you please
advise
as to the constraint that would accomplish that.
Thanks so much for your help.

Both of these are somewhat advanced operations.
For the first, you need to add something like this for the prompt
label. So if you wanted to ask someone their age, you'd put this:
"Hello, . What is your age?"
For the second, you need a regular expression constraint (read
http://www.regular-expressions.info/ for more). For example, this
constraint will allow only alphanumeric input that is 4 characters
long.
regex(.,'[A-Z0-9]{4}')
Hope this helps,
Yaw

Hi ODK Community,
I'd like to know if there is an xls syntax for piping the
respondent's
Name
(ex. Matt), such that when the next question comes up (ex. What
is
[NAME's]
gender?), the [NAME's] automatically changes to the respondent's
actual
Name
(ex. What is Matt's gender?).
Secondly, I need some help with constraining the phone number
such
that
the
enumerator is required to entering a phone number that is between
7-10
characters (integers) long, with the country code as the required
integers
for the first three characters. Is there a way to accomplish that
in
xls?
Thank you for the help!

The preceding examples were for strings; If the value is an integer, you
should have a constraint like this:
constraint=". >= 0 and . <= 9999"
(for positive values 0 - 9999).
