I think actually what you’re seeing is a blank list viewer. I told you what I thought the problem was here:

In addition, I can see that when the screen opens, you create lists from a data source but you never assign the list variable to your list viewer’s text items.

Please add any new details to that topic instead of starting a new one. You can post these same screenshots there as well.
