and all this too:
Im trying to create sms sending but when i stack to click the send button, i got this error. im quite confused on how to fix this part
im sorry, but since im still quite a beginner on this, im not sure how to fix it
From what you show, it seems that the variable globalPhoneNumber has a phone number in it, not a list.
Also, I can't see where you connect your selected row data in the Tableviewer with what you are doing?
Well, yes. Thats what im trying to use. I want to send a message to all the numbers listed from the phonenumber list and as you can see in the 2nd image, theres an error. it says bad arguement
If you are hoping to send multiple SMS in one go, you must ensure the first has completed before trying to send the second, and so on, otherwise the sending process will fall over...
Detail your workflow, in words...
Im currently stuck when I fire the send message button. I'm not quite sure if the format or block used in getting the phoneNumbers are correct. Can I get a clearer guide on this part only?
So what are the relevant blocks of that button click event? I can't find them in your screenshot...

under the spinner selection which is filteredList, then after filtering, i want to get all the mobile numbers and add to phonenumber list
The first thing you should do is to follow some naming conventions...
If a variable is a list, then name it like that, i.e.listPhoneNumbers and if it is a phone number then name it phoneNumber
Then use Do it to debug your blocks
If you still have problems to find your error, then post another screenshot of your relevant blocks only

Heres my block arrangement for getting the phonenumber list but when i debug it, it say index too large or something.
foundItems seems to be a number? Or is it a list? What is it? Display it in a label to find it out. .
First you use it as a number, then as a list
And follow some naming conventions...
