use Do it to debug your blocks, see also tip 4 here

Top 5 Tips: How to learn App Inventor

btw. you do not have to store the values additionally in global variables to display them later in labels...

also you might want to rename your components for better clarity of your blocks

instead of Label1 probably better to use lblLastName or lblAddress or something...

A very good way to learn App Inventor is to read the free Inventor's Manual here in the AI2 free online eBook   http://www.appinventor.org/book2 ... the links are at the bottom of the Web page.  The book 'teaches' users how to program with AI2 blocks.

There is a free programming course here http://www.appinventor.org/content/CourseInABox/Intro  and the aia files for the projects in the book are here:  http://www.appinventor.org/bookFiles  

How to do a lot of basic things with App Inventor are described here:  http://www.appinventor.org/content/howDoYou/eventHandling  .

Also do the tutorials http://appinventor.mit.edu/explore/ai2/tutorials.html to learn the basics of App Inventor, then try something and follow the

 Top 5 Tips: How to learn  App Inventor

You will not find a tutorial, which does exactly what you are looking for. But doing the tutorials (not only reading a little bit) help you to understand, how things are working. This is important and this is the first step to do.

When you get a result back from TinyWebDB, check the value, not the tag.

good day sir abraham.

thanks for the help...

it works again.

i don't believe it was just a simple little kitty mitty problem.

i thought my tinywebdb was broken somehow.

thanks again sir.

good day sir taifun.

thanks for the advice and also really helpful for making a simple block instead of complicated like mine.
