Hi Team members, I was creating a survey with Variables Date of Birth and Age. Is it possible to autogenarate Age in Years and Months from the date of birth entered?
…
Q3. Enter date of birth (dd/mm/yyyy): //_________
…
Q5. Current Age: Years:________________ Months:____________
Thanks
Collins
Yes its possible let me write the calculate function that you will need to put.

This is Dynamite!
Steven, we’re always very impressed by your work, I wonder if you might like to post something about the use and methods of the Calculate function?

Hello Neil
Will do so… I am currently working on a tool that is taking your KOBO to the greatest test limits so I will be able to document a lot based on this assignment with calculate function among other functions that I found could work with the sytem. So probably at a later stage. Thanks for the complement. On a lighter note since last year we are now implementing national level Study Number 11 using KOBO (teams have nicknamed the phones KOBO and call each other Koblets)

Fantastic! Do please let us know more about your study, I’ll add something to the user showcases for you. We often call eachother “KoBoNauts”

Hi
I need to make the phone number be eleven digits not increase not decrease
Hi you can use this in constraints field:
regex(.,’[0-9]{11}’)
@moteb_marei Please see my recent posting Number constraints as to why this regex is incorrect.
@ziyad Could you please remember to open a new thread topic for new questions, this is rather unrelated to the original topic. Or if you want to email another forum member directly you can use the Flag control to send them a private message.
Hi,
But if you make the type of question integer nobody will be able to write string entries
Best Regards
Moteb Marei
Please note that using an integer question to enter phone numbers is problematic due to the limited number of digits allowed (max 9), which may well be insufficient to store a long phone number. It is therefore recommended - for phone numbers - to use a regular text widget (which effectively has unlimited length) with an appearance=“numbers”. But this is basically only a hint to the XForm client to display a keyboard that only permits entering numbers, which depending on your platform may or may not be possible (eg Enketo cant control your laptops keyboard…). So in addition it is also recommended to add a suitable constraint regex (see above) to ensure that the user only submits numbers.
if still suffering from that can you try this:
regex (.,’^[A-Za-z0-9._؟?#&*/@;:؛÷×%$ ±]
{11} $’)
Good grief! What ARE you trying to match!?!
But seriously, what sort of user input data are you trying to validate, and in what way is your regex above misbehaving? Perhaps give a couple of example of strings that you want to match, and I’m sure we can come up with a suitable regex.
Sorry I didn’t understand what you meant exactly:
But in my work we are using ID entering for beneficiaries to avoid duplicating in names … to match assessment data with distribution data:
ID number is unique for all citizens and consists from 11 numbers… so in above regex i force enumerators to add only number with “text” type of question… we have 2 languages Arabic and English… Some times they are laptops to fill data into server
Unfortunately, multi-lingual regexs are beyond my scope of expertise (I don’t even know if you can do them). Perhaps someone else here who has successfully implemented constraint checking against non-English text input can provide some insight?
Yes Dear we are using Arabic Language mainly but the form in English as you know, So to prevent people making mistake I did that regex.
