use strcmpi()

Thank you but I am interested to know what is wrong with this or logical.

[Fangjun Jiang]

YesNo=='Yes' returns a 1x3 array, or a vector

"||" can only be applied to logical scalar values

you could use (YesNo=='Yes') | (YesNo=='yes'), or call the or() function, or(YesNo=='Yes', YesNo=='yes'), but that still returns a vector.
