Hey guys. I’m trying to save inputs text to a local DB table but for some odd reason it does not save into the DB. Am I missing something with my logic below or do I need a membership to be able to do this? ![image](https://us1.discourse-cdn.com/flex015/uploads/thunkable/original/3X/3/0/307930ff808892d139323de232e527962e8f1937.png) ---

Hi, Just to note, you are only able to view the first 3 rows in a local table (this is something that has come up time and time again and the developers have been asked if this cannot be changed, but so far nothing). This means that the data may be being saved to the database but as you are not able to view it, you may think that it is not being stored. What you can do to make sure that the data is being stored is to include a label called confirm, set it to the number of rows in the table as well as the last row of the table and display it after each submission. ![2024-10-28 14 42 23](https://us1.discourse-cdn.com/flex015/uploads/thunkable/original/3X/0/e/0eb866110c3e79b4a03d8f2ec0a7445b5a3adf49.png) Hope that this helps you.

Hi @cannabisxrsa65u9cl This is probably happening because one of the Text inputs or the DateInput is not set ---

So data will only be stored if all cells will have data? ---

@steve_synopsis yes. You could set empty text using the [“Test, If True, If False” block](https://docs.thunkable.com/blocks/blocks/control#test-if-true-if-false). ---
