ROG It would appear that one or both of the columns/measures that you have highlighted are returning numbers and not text. So, you need to address those comparisons. Are they really returning "Yes" and "No"? Doesn't seem like it.

Hi Greg_Deckler 
The issue is that ROG is trying to compare a measure of type percentage ( [8 WK Diff %] ) with a text ("Yes"). Better if he advises what is he trying to achieve.

    Thanks a million tamerj1  
    I was indeed using a wrong measure. The below worked. 

    8WK CN Size_SigTest =
    VAR _8WkSigTest = IF([CHI_SQUARE_TAKERS_8_WK_ACTIVE] = "Yes", 1, 0)
    VAR Flag8Wk_CNSize = IF([flag_8_wk] = "Yes",1, 0)

    Return IF( _8WkSigTest = 1 && Flag8Wk_CNSize = 1, "Yes", "No")
