I want to add a white block to the letter "D" but when I export it on a transparent background it shows the white box. How do I make the box transparent but not show the letter in the background?

You could apply the box as an opacity mask.

Or

Outline the font and use pathfinder operations.

Thank you for the response. 

 

When I click on the box and click on make "masK" it says I have to select more than 1 item. When I select the box and the logo and create make, the logo disappears and the box turns black
