Hello,

I call 'Describe' to get all my fields including custom fields.  The custom fields all begin with CF_, but I wanted the label name instead.  Was the label information part of the 'Describe' call? If not, how to get the same label names that are displayed in SF?

Thanks in advance

A newbie

Hello,

I am a new user with a developer account. I can make most of the calls I needed using my developer account login to the URL http://na1.salesforce.com/servlet/servlet.SoapApi .When I need to login with a real account, I can't get it to work.  I then changed the URL to https://www.salesforce.com/servlet/servlet.SoapApi and I can login with a real account, but none of my calls work (ie query, describe).  What do I need to do?

Any help is appreciated.

I'm a newbie and using the vb.net (Soap calls) samples to get data in salesforce.

I can login and do searches on accounts, contacts, and opportunities.  Now I need to get fields data.

Do I start with a describe function? I do a  call below, but need to know how to parse the response.

sForce.describe("account")

Then I need to query for fields data. 

Any help is appreciated.
