Do you mean "all records that have the same old value in that field" ?

Hi

Yes,all the records that have the same value like (true, false ) 

 

For Example if i had check box field when i checked it all the records with that field should be checked and vice- versa.....

 

How can i achieve this  Trigger or WorkFlow ???

I haven't got time for valid syntax code but something like

in the trigger

 

 

for( things x1 : Trigger.new )

{

    list<things> changethese = [ SELECT Id, field1 FROM things WHERE field1!=:x1.field1 AND Id1= x1.Id ];

    for ( things x2 : changethese )

    {

        x2.field1 = x1.field1;

    }

    update changethese;

}

 

Or you could just create a single GlobalValues record and put the tick in there?.....

 

I'm intrigued why you have a value that has to be the same in every record?

You could almost just say


    list<things> changethese = [ SELECT Id, field1 FROM things WHERE Id1= x1.Id ];
