Hi,

I couldn't upload excel file or so, but I have used here a variable before it is defined, and it didn't throw up any problem when I tried to validate the form, but the server didn't accept to upload it due to xform def problems.

Please have a look at pic attached, I 'm sorry I couldn't upload the excel file.

See my attempt at duplicating this form here:

This works both for uploading to ODK Aggregate and for downloading, filling out, and running.

This doesn't look like a problem. There isn't really a 'before' and 'after' concept in XForms.
