For the benefit of others, you are using an array type question with question code "
Combinations" and 35 answers with codes 1-35.
In this case, you can use the Expression Manager
countif() function to count the number of selections of each answer.

So, something like this in the question validation equation:
Code:
countif('1', that.Combinations) < 5
AND
countif('2', that.Combinations) < 5
AND
countif('3', that.Combinations) < 5
AND
countif('4', that.Combinations) < 5
AND
...
AND
countif('31', that.Combinations) < 5
AND
countif('32', that.Combinations) < 5
AND
countif('33', that.Combinations) < 5
AND
countif('34', that.Combinations) < 5
AND
countif('35', that.Combinations) < 5
Here is your sample survey back with that change:
