With new ODK release there was much talk about "Data Preloading"
possibilities. I am designing a survey that requires enumerator to select a
previously entered house hold member (entered as a repeat group) and then
answer additional questions related to him/her.

I understand the referencing/searching through CSV file, but can i select a
household member entered earlier (as repeat group loop) in the same form,
during later/subsequent questions?

Load/insert repeat-group data into CSV file* at runtime* during survey?
(e.g. putdata() or similar function ... compared to pulldata()).
OR as earlier posted:
One by one/conditional reference to repeat-group household member by
using certain syntax.
Since that's core requirement of the survey, I would really appreciate your
input on this.

Ayub

Strongly recommend you try this with a very small form first. Lots of
gotchas with indexed-repeat() and current() and I'm not an expert on
what all those gotchas are...

I tried out a small form with indexed-repeat() and after lots of ODK
Collect crashes, errors, troubleshooting i got it to work. I have some
follow up questions on this:
Can we possibly and more dynamically refer to a repeat group member
since we have to create e.g. 10 static instances/variables/columns (hence
restricting user response) ...
static_instance-nam-1
2
2
How can we set dynamic value ('name') for an item that we get through
indexed-repeat() ... I tried with:
But this crashed ODK Collect, is that because are defined in
separate instance than /data/hh9name and we can't reference values from
outside current instance?
I have attached the form which is exactly similar to Koassi AKAKPO's reply.

You can use jr:choice-name(value, 'field') function as bellow.
type name label calculation select_one hh hhnam Select name?
calculate hhnam1 Name label jr:choice-name(${hhnam}, '${hhnam}') select_one
job job What does ${hhnam1} do?

jr:choice-name(value, 'field'): Returns the label for a select_one or
select_multiple field choice (as in the calculate expression
"jr:choice-name(${selectonefield}, '${selectonefield}')" to return the
label for the currently-selected choice in the selectonefield field). For
select_multiple fields, you can combine with selected-at() to get the label
for individual selections (as in
"jr:choice-name(selected-at(${selectmultfield}, 0), '${selectmultfield}')"
to return the label for the first choice in the selectmultfield field).
