Control Parameter to pass column name besides values

Hi there! I'm fairly new to Alteryx and I'm developing a simple macro that add descriptions to several different codes.

 

I'm trying to set it up in the simplest way possible and the only thing I'm missing on my workflow is how to get the column name of the parameter in order to filter my table with codes

I would like the condition on the left to be able to test the column name of the workflow that calls the macro, however I see that I'm only comparing it with it's values (12, 03, 05, etc)

 

is there any way to fix this? or do I need to create a new control parameter to get that column name separately?

 

I'd greatly appreciate some help, thank you!

It is the same but it keeps changing based on user input, I have decided there's no way around it and that I need to include a second control parameter with that value, without it I don't have enough information to correctly filter the code, thanks again for helping out!
