I know that the Metadata API doesn't support the deletion of existing picklist values. Are there any workarounds for this? Any ideas?

Thanks for your time.

How to  add ideas application in developer edition?

Hi,

   I created Page for custom save controller. my page apex code given below...

Hi all,

I want to create a rollup summary field which sums up the amount from its child records.

This summing of amounts should take place only if flag is checked on the child record. Otherwise, the rollup field should ignore this amount field on the child records.

Really appreciate any help or idea on how to implement this.

Thanks,

You can use Dynamic DML to insert untyped SObjects one-at-a-time, but not as an array:

SObjectType token = Schema.getGlobalDescribe().get('contact');
SObject[] objs = new SObject[0];
for (integer i = 0; i<2; i++) {
  SObject tmp = token.newSObject();
  tmp.put('LastName', 'test' + i);
  objs.add(tmp);
  }

boolean showBug = true;

if (showBug) { // fails with "DML not allowed on abstract class SObject"
  insert objs;
  }
else { // works
  for (SObject i : objs) insert i;
  }

I would like to determine current total apex script size against stated governor limit of 1MB.  I would also like a break down per Apex class/trigger.  Is this possible?

I've review the Limit methods.  Would any of the following API provide this information:

• runTests
• compileAndTest
• compileClasses
• compileTriggers

Thanks in advance for any assistance.

I just created a custom app and it has everything the marketing group wanted. However, at the end of the approval process it needs to send an email with the contents of the record (which is no problem) AND a listing of the related items.

I'm not sure how to send that list since it could be one entry or many and it is not part of the main object. It has a lookup relationship to the main object though.

Is there a way to somehow query the related list using Apex or some other method so that I could return the items in an email?

Thanks

1. The original record loads from the database or initializes for an insert operation
2. The new values load from the incoming request and overwrite the old values in the record buffer. The old values are saved in the old context variable for update triggers.
3. Before triggers run.
...
5. The record is saved to the database, but the record is not committed.
6. After triggers run.
...
8. Workflow rules execute. If field updates are specified, the record updates again, and before and after triggers for the update fire.
...
10. All data manipulation operations are committed to the database.

I believe step 8 is causing my trigger to fire again. Is there anyway to prevent triggers from doing a repeat action if step 8 causes your trigger to fire again?

Here is my apex trigger code:

trigger LeadStatusHistoryTrigger on Lead (before update) 
{
 // Declare a list of Lead_Status_History__c to be insertedin Salesforce
 List<Lead_Status_History__c> LeadStatusHistoryObjects = new List<Lead_Status_History__c>();
 
 // If the trigger is an update trigger insert all the new status changes
 if ( Trigger.isUpdate )
 {
  for ( Lead l_new: Trigger.new )
  {
    // Check to see if the status of the old and new lead values are the same.
    // If they are different then we create a new entry in the lead_status_history custom object
    if ( l_new.Status != Trigger.oldMap.get( l_new.Id ).Status )
    {
     LeadStatusHistoryObjects.add( new Lead_Status_History__c ( Lead__c = l_new.Id, Lead_Status_New__c = l_new.Status, Lead_Status_Old__c = Trigger.oldMap.get( l_new.Id ).Status ) ); 
    }
  }
  
  // After all the new Lead Status History items have been added, now insert them into Salesforce
  try
  {
   insert LeadStatusHistoryObjects;
  }
  catch (DmlException de)
  {
   for ( integer i = 0; i < de.getNumDml(); i++ )
   {
    System.debug('LeadStatusHistoryTrigger Error Inserting Lead Status History Objects: ' + de.getDmlMessage(i));
   } 
  }
  
 }
}

// This trigger assigns a value to the MSG_ID__c custom field on cases before the new case
// is saved to the database.

trigger copyMSGIdCases on Case (before insert, before update) {
 // Determine the account
 Set<ID> accIds = new Set<ID>();
 for (Case cas : Trigger.new)
  accIds.add(cas.accountid);
 // Query the Account to get the MSG_ID__c entry
 Map<Id, Account> entries = new Map<Id, Account>(
  [select MSG_ID__c, PAS_ID__c from Account
  where id in :accIds]);
 
 // Now set the Account_MSG_ID__c on the Contact to be the same as MSG_ID__c on the
 // related account
 // Now set the PAS_Account_ID__c on the Case to be the same as PAS_ID__c on the
 // related account
 for (Case cas : Trigger.new)
 cas.MSG_ID__c = entries.get(cas.AccountId).MSG_ID__c;
 for (Case cas : Trigger.new)
 cas.PAS_Account_ID__c = entries.get(cas.AccountId).PAS_ID__c;

}
