Hi Team,

We are facing an issue while retrieving Custom Fields through Retrieve methods of Sales force Metadata API. The issue is occcuring with Event and Task Standard Object (Basically Activity Object). Generated output files (e.g: Event.xml) is not retrieving any Custom fields from Event OR Task Object(e.g: •Color_vod__c
• Followup_Activity_Type_vod__c
• Mobile_ID_vod__c
• Override_Lock_vod__c
• TOT_ready_AZ_EU__c)

This is causing an serious issue for one of our development project for Metadata extraction and using the same information for other reporting tool purpose.
Any update or resolution on the same will be highly appreciated.

 If I want to display, for instance, an account name, with a label, in a vf pageSection, I can do this:

 

 

<apex:outputField value="{!theAccount.Name}"/>

 

But if I want to have it link to the account, do I really have to write all this markup?

 

 

 

<apex:pageBlockSectionItem>
<apex:outputLabel value="Account Name" for="the_account"/>
<apex:outputLink value="/{!theAccount.Id}" id="the_account">
<apex:outputText value="{!theAccount.Name}"/>
</apex:outputLink>
</apex:pageBlockSectionItem>

 

 I'm wishing I could write:

 

 

<apex:outputText value="{!theAccount.Name}" linksto="{!theAccount.Id}"/>
