Mass data transfer

Hello-

 

Is there a way that I can transfer existing data currently stored in a field to another tab by recreating duplicate field? In another word, I have created 2 tabs that are linked to each other with different fields. After inputing some data, I now realize that I actually would like 1 single tab instead of 2. The problem is I have 77 records saved in the both tabs. I don't know how to transfer these data over, except by manual copying & pasting...

 

Please help!

 

Thanks,

Teacup13

Hello

 

The Solution is pretty painless, you will have to download Dataloader

 

1. Setup > Data Management (Under Administration) > Data Loader (Download, Install)

2. Use the Apex Dataloader to export data from one object

then

3. Import the data to the second object fields

 

Let me know how it goes

Hi Shahaf,

 

I followed your instruction, but did not find Data Loader under Data Management. Perhaps SF Professional version does not have this application. I decided to export all existing data and reimport in dulpicate fields. I guess this would be the other option.

 

Thank you,
