String, not Booleannot a Boolean. The variable could be: Yes, No, Unk or INC. yet, if it's one of the last two, it throws an error because it believes it's a Boolean. Is there anyway to get around this? Code is below. Thanks in Advance! Elena If strStat = "Yes" Then intGreen = intGreen + 1 intSec = intSec + 1 End If If strStat = "No" Then intRed = intRed + 1 intSec = intSec + 1 End If If strStat = "UNK" Or "INC" Then intYellow = intYellow + 1 End If Try the following:

Four of the answers where in a timespan of 8 minutes. And from Austria comes often an Echo, that is probably because of those high mountains there.
