There are so many parans in there that the logic is escaping us ;)

You’ve got parens around the entire second half of the equation so you’re trying to compare Arivee against a boolean just like it’s claiming. try something like:

if Arivee = “Mr. and Mrs. Handley” and not (status “Tennis Flag”) then

it’s just way too many parens and then things become impossible to sort out what is grouped with what.
