I get this error:

I have checked the form with ODK - XLSForm Online v2.x. I don’t think that is the problem. I am using two CSV files. One of them is giving the error, but why that is, I don’t know. I already have used these CSV files in another project, and there it worked properly. Could you assist me to fix this problem?

Thanks!

@Webex, could you share the complete screenshot of the Loading Error? We would be able to learn more through the message that we see at the bottom.

OK, could you share your csv file here so that we could have a closer look at it to see if there are any issues?

Here is my CSV file:

Thanks!

OK. Would you now mind sharing the extract/section of the xlsform where you wish to pull the information from the CSV file?

Here is the xlsform.

Thanks for looking into the problem.

When having a closer look at your xlsform, I see that you are using some column header (like calculate which should be calculation) that is not compatible with the system:

Fix this and also validate it through this online validator which should help you identify syntax issues.

Besides, I also observed that you are tying to use the select_one_from_file question type. Maybe you could learn more on the same through our support article Select One or Many From External File Question Type.
