Hello,
In my app I will create an address list, which is useful for this app. Unfortunately, I get since hours errors. I tried many variants, but nothing works.
Here is the error:
Here are all the blocks of this address book:
Thank you very much for your help!
Index must be a number.
Dear ABG, Thank you. I am not so familar with lists. Do you mean the numbers 1-4 from the TBX for name, nachname, adresse and telefon? How can I realize this? Should I create a "make a list" with the index numbers? I have no idea. Sorry! Thank you very much.

Dear Taifun, Thank you. Tomorrow I will have a look at it. I have at the moment these blocks:
yes, this would help you a lot...
you have to think about, which item of your global data list you like to replace...
then only replace that item using the correct index...
an index can't be joined like you are doing it... it is a creative solution but unfortunately wrong...
and to get better help, why not posting a screenshot including a Do it result, so we know, how your global data looks like?

Dear Taifun, Thank you for your help. I have created a trial of this edit button with the replacement, here it is:
why not try yourself and tell us what you find?
OK, dear Kevin. At the moment, I am studying Taifun's list tutorial, this is a lot to read.
Nothing has changed. The Runtime Error (please see at the top of this entry) is still there. It tells me, that something what is 1 should be 0. But an index always starts with 1, only arrays are starting with 0. I do not know what to do. I need this contact form with this different data. Does someone please have advice? Thanks!
You have never shown us a DO it debugging screen shot.
It is time you learned that tool to see what is going on.
use Do it to debug your blocks, see also tip 4 here App Inventor: How to Learn | Pura Vida Apps

You first have to understand the concept of a list and of a list of lists
You always have 4 items Name, Nachname, Adresse, Telefon. This is a list. And you store several of these lists in your global variable data, which is a list of lists.
Now what exactly are you trying to delete? An item of one of the sublists or an item of the list of lists?
