Use field name in a multi-field formula when column name is a date

I'm trying to create a workflow that will compare the field which is a date to a beginning and end date and return if the field date is between the start and end dates or not.  I'm using the multi-field formula to pull in the CurrentFieldName but because it is stored as a string field it won't work in a date formula.  Here is a simplified example.

Hi @Unc1551, on your multi-field tool, you will want to change the field type to a string. Try this and see if it works for you.
