can anyone help me?

Answer 1

You're missing single quotes in your data . Value for name is a string and should be wrapped in single quotes.

You have already implemented this in calldata() that is why it is working fine. Update the same for savedata too.

Note: This applies for all the string parameters and may apply in some other way (using #) for date / datetime parameters too.

Please use this as a starting point and follow best-practices for development!

Hope this helps!
