Issues with Formula

Hi can anyone assist, I've been trying to create a formula using the formula tool, as seen below but keep getting 'not wrong' regardless of whether the criteria is met:

 

any idea to what I'm doing wrong?

 

if [Date] and [End Date] <= [open date] THEN "right" else "non wrong" endif

 

Thanks

It is hard to know just from your post.

What is the data type of all 3 date fields

@robin0905: try: if [Date] <= [open date] and [End Date] <= [open date] THEN "right" else "non wrong" endif

 

Also you're data types all need to match up as @OTrieger said

@Bren_Spill  it will work only if all will be Date data type, as if they will all be sting that would not work as expected.

@OTrieger agreed - that's why I referenced your post in mine!

@robin0905 - no problem! Can you mark as solution so it makes it easier for others to find? (you can mark two as solution!)
