try this
IF(
[daytime]="no" AND [evening]="no", "no",

Thanks Mark. Neither of the fields are blank, but this formula is still resulting in blank. 

If(
[Daytime]="no" and [Evening]="no", "no",
[Daytime]="yes" or [Evening]="yes", "yes")

I should note that both my [daytime] and [evening] fields are already formula-text fields. Not sure if that makes a difference.,

    The test on equals =  is case sensitive. 
    Can you check the Capitalization of your fields.  Are they for example Yes or YES where our formula is testing for yes.

      Ah - that was it! Great call, thank you. I had "Yes" where our formula was testing for "yes". 

      Works perfectly now. Thanks for your help!
