Hello! Can I insert a pull data function in XLS form before the TEXTtoCHECKfor data is yet to collected. Is it possible to leave the columncheckformatchingTEXT in csv blank. Thanks

But that would defeat the purpose of using the pulldata function. What exactly is your requirement?

Okay so my issue is as follows. I inserted the pulldata function on XLS and the first column of my csv is blank. So i tried to run the toll on Kobocollect app but i cant fill in the questions i have called using pill data function.

Did you try it with a CSV that doesn’t have the first column blank?

Your csv file uses semicolons as separators… Change it to comma and try again.
