Use Apex to pull values from a picklist

My client wants to have a quote with items sub-divided by product family.  How would I access the values in the ProductFamily picklist using Apex?  The questions I have seen on this were before the Summer '09 release.  Has anything been updated?

Hi

 

 

The solution to this one is listed in the documentation as:

 

Schema.DescribeFieldResult F = Account.Industry.getDescribe();

List P = F.getPicklistValues(); Each picklistEntry then has getLabel and getValue methods.

 

 

 

thanks
