Try this. It should be  more  efficient way  to do this but this example
should  work

on mouseUp
  put "Mark,Ann,Jim,kevin"  into myvarOne
  put myvarOne into temp
  repeat with i = 1 to the number of items of temp
    put item i of temp into myData["Student","name",i]
  end repeat
  put "Kate,Antonio,Scott"  into myvarTwo
  put myvarTwo into temp
  repeat with i = 1 to the number of items of temp
    put item i of temp into myData["prof","name",i]
  end repeat
  set the customProperties["cData"] of this stack to myData
  put  the short name of this stack into MYstackName
  -- put the cData ["student","name","3"] of stack MYstackName into OneElement
  set the customPropertySet of stack MYstackName to "cData"
  put customkeys of stack  MYstackName into MyList
  set the customPropertySet of stack MYstackName to empty -- to set it
back to default custom properties
  repeat with j= 1 to number of lines of MyList
    put the cData [line j of MyList] of stack MYstackName  into line j
of MyListContent
  end repeat
  
  put MyListContent  & cr & "=====" &cr &   mylist
  
end mouseUp
