I would like to add the pregnancy checklist "score" to the lookup values
when following up on a pregnant mother. For those of you not familiar with
said checklist, the "score" is the number of items that have been answered
"Yes" from a checklist of "Yes/No" items.
This will give the chw quick feedback at the beginning of a follow visit on
the results of the last visit with the mother and might also allow the chw
to show the mother her score in comparison with the other mothers who have
already registered and completed the checklist.

you can display miscellaneous messages to the user (not as part of a
question) through the tag. you define it like other questions
(, , etc.), but when you get to it, instead of displaying a
question, it shows a message with an 'OK' button. the trigger still needs to
be bound to a node in the instance -- even though no data will get stored in
this node -- you can attach conditions to this node to determine whether or
not to show the alert.

You are done!
messages (both for s and question captions) can show
customizable content via the tag. this tag is embedded in the
message (making the message more like a template), and the content of the
tag contains an expressions which is evaluated to get the text inserted into
the final message.
You have
descendants
depending on how you want to calculate the score, you have several
options:
a) if the score is just 1 point for every yes in a single multi-select
question, you can use
count-selected(../pregnancy_checklist)
b) if the individual factors are split amongst multiple questions or you
want to vary the number of points for each factor, you need a more explicit
calculation, like:
also fyi, there is a 'checklist' xpath helper function for when you want to
drive conditions off these kind of 'scores' (though it doesn't actually give
you the score for display, like you need in this case). for example, if you
want to ask some 'high risk' questions if someone has at least 3 of 8 risk
factors, you'd use checklist().

To followup on the other part of your question (persisting and using this
value beyond the individual session):
Once you've gotten a node in your instance which corresponds to the score,
you can associate it with the pregnant mother's case inside of the case's
update block (I'm assuming here that the xform already has a case block for
this xform). So inside of your instance, you would have
...
...
...
...
Along with a bind for the score
<bind nodeset="/data/case/update/pregscore"/>
You can associate that value with your number either by using a calculate=""
to tie the pregscore to the other node in your instance, or by performing
the calculation directly inside of the field.
Once the score is associated with the case, you can use it in the
blocks of the suite file as
...
...
Or load it into future xforms (which have the user select a case) by setting
up a node in your instance
So you can now reference that node with a trigger or other element to
display it at the start of of a form or at any point during the form
interaction.

Many thanks for such thorough and descriptive responses! Have all I need
