You’re going to have to share more than that :woozy_face: That literally tells nobody anything.

#8

its a module, with a table…

???

local module = {}
local Kirby = {
}
return module

You have defined kirby as a local variable in the module. Unless a reference to it is returned by the modulescript you won’t be able to access it.

You need to do:

local module = {}
module.Kirby = {}

return module

If that’s all then no wonder. You have to return the table.

local CharStats = {
    Kirby = {
        Name = "Kirby",
        -- data
    }
    -- data
}

return CharStats

local CharStats = require(<path>)

...

Holder.CharInfo.CharName.Text = CharStats.Kirby.Name
