How can bypass SOQL statement to fetch more 1000 records in salesforce

How can bypass SOQL statement to fetch more 1000 records in salesforce

HI Balakrishna,

As vinit said that the limit has been revised to 50,000. But this limit is for entire transaction. This means you can have for eg. 10 queries returning 5000 records. Or you can have 1 query returning 50000 records. Once you reach 50,000 records you cannot issue any more queries for that transaction.

Although the limit has been enhanced to 50,000 I have received an error several times when the query returns more than 1000 records. In such cases:

You can use a FOR SOQL to overcome this limit.

So if your regular query is as below:

List<Account> accounts = new List<Account>();
accounts = [Select Id, Name from Account];

then instead of the above query you can use:

List<Account> accounts = new List<Account>();

for(Account acc : [Select Id, Name from Account])
{
accounts.add(acc);
}

However do note that this can work upto 50,000 records.

The limit of 1000 no longer applies (except in some special circumstances). Could you elaborate on your problem?
