Does anyone know how to change a created variable from a measure to a dimension?

I'm trying to convert the following formula from a measure to a dimension, which I have used in the old 5.1 version of BO:

= If <Variable1>="01 " And <Variable2>="01 "Then "yes" Else "no"

Previously I have been able to use this as a dimension and therefore do rankings etc however in XI I'm unable to change a measure to a dimension.

What happened when you right-click on the variable (from Deski) to 'edit variable', then select on the definition tab to select between measure and dimension?

If the 'edit variable' was grayed out, you may have to edit it from the universe.

Thanks Tony, that was what I expected.
