New custom field does not show up
Hi,
I created a custom field one (two days ago) and custom field two (today) on contact, however only custom field one shows up from sforce excel connector table query wizard. Is there any setting that I can change to include the new custom field two?
Any particular reason custom field two does not show up in excel connector while the first one does?
Many thanks in advance
Hi,
The first one is multi pick list and the second field is text area.
Thanks,
HTAM
if you try this you get something like
ExceptionCode 5077, field 'Description' cannot be filtered in a query call
so, the new field should show up in the columns when you do a description, but not in the wizard pick list because I check for field types which can be used in a query when constructing this picklist.
Ron,
Actually I did not try to do any query using those fields, just to describe the table. However only the first custom objects shows up and the second one (which is added later) does not shows up in table description.

Which table is the custom field on?
Are both custom fields visible within the application?
Does the custom field have a name similar to a standard field on that table? (i.e. Description)
The fielda are on contact table and called groups (shows up) and temp_act_ID (does not shows up). Do we need to put them on page layout in order for them to show up on table description?
Thanks so much

I have the sysadmin access so I can definitely see the custom field.
Try logging out your session, logging back in and re-describing.
or
do you see the field in the detail page layout for the contract records ?
also, the com toolkit and connector caches the description, so logout using the connecor menu item should help if this is the problem
Ron,
Looks like login out and login back solve the problem.
Thanks
