I need a little help with a custom date field in the Leads section.  I am trying to fill the value of this date field with the current date when the first event is logged for this lead.  I have tried using the workflow to do this, but either I am blind or the custom field is not available in the workflow.

If you have any solution as to how to get the first contact date in the Leads section, you are awesome.

Any help would be greatly appreciated!
