Maybe i gave you bad code

local StringValue = script.Parent

StringValue.Changed:Connect(function(NewValue)
--// Code here
end)

The issue here is you’ve just copied and pasted the code, without actually translating that pseudo code to real code.

You can’t use .Changed directly. It takes a function instead. I’d recommend brushing up on some basic Lua tutorials. The help you receive from this category would be a bit more useful then.

Nope, point of this section is to point you in the right direction or help you solve an issue with current code. This is not a section for us to hand you code. Nevertheless some people can’t stop themselves from doing just that.
