I want to start a workflow when a text field is updated. For example I the from I currently build has two fields where comments are entered to provide status updates for the request.  

 

I have tried the following condition:

I tested the condition but the workflow starts even when this fields have not been updated.

Is there a way to trigger a workflow to start when multi-line text field are updated?

That seems very strange. The way you have it setup is the correct way to do exactly what it is you're trying to do. The only thing I can think of is to ask if there is any code (form javascript or rules) or other workflows that are doing *some* work to those fields On Save / Submit. If the fields are being modified by some automated process, then perhaps it's that modification that is triggering your workflow here regardless of user input.

Hi thank you for replying.  Do you think since the fields have versioning turned on.  That this may be causing the workflow not to run correctly?
