Can't follow my own XLSForm programming!?!?

Question

I'm still learning, pulling a ton of stuff off the interwebs and making stuff work. Looking back trying to tweak some of the functions in my older forms to work for new scenarios I'm finding some things, from before I started trying to document them, that I don't know what they are doing. Is there any way to follow the process, like tracing formulas in excel?

I did figure out what the code I didn't understand was doing, at least enough to use it correctly in the new form I was building. It was the jr:choice-name(choice,'question') function that was confusing me. I found the "Description" in the ESRI documentation, but do not understand it 100%. I'll look for a more complete explanation, I'm sure there is one somewhere.

Hi Bryan,

No, I don't think there are any tools that will help in this case. What exactly are you trying to trace or work out? Are you able to share your xslx file and more details about what you are unsure of, and maybe one of us can take a look and hopefully shed some light?
