I have a column that is a string. I am not sure how to define it in the contents type of the variable tab. Its a flag column with Yes and No in it.

It should be defined as either "Other" or "Ignore", just as every field should be.

(Of course, that presupposes that you're writing the code yourself and not relying on the abomination that is the Generated Statements code which, at a guess, is not the case. )

Accordingly, the question of what you need to do with the values in that column would seem to determine the answer. It would be helpful if you elaborated on that a little.
