Is this something that you are trying to do, except for using AccountID instead of Name:

HI Jayson,

You can write following soql and iterate over it.
  
List<Account> accountsWithContacts = [select id, name, (select id,description,firstname, lastname, email from Contacts) from Account];

or
  
List<Contact> contacts = [select id, salutation, firstname, lastname, email from Contact where accountId = :account.Id];

Thanks,

@Hargobind_Singh thanks for the suggestion..it is not actually.. I'm trying to create a trigger that works like a validation rule..it should only fire when a user attached a duplicate contact in an Account... the trigger should only query duplicates on Accounts related contacts..

@Himanshu , Thanks for the suggestion, that is exactly what I need. I just need to know how will I create the bind variable :account.id ?

I got the query, I was able to List all contacts related to same Account, but how will I match my new contact email from the list of all contacts related to same account.


trigger dt on Contact (before insert, before update) {

for (Contact newCon : Trigger.New) {

if (newCon.AccountId != null)

{

List <Contact> exCon = [Select Id from Contact where AccountId = :newCon.AccountId Limit 200];


if(newCon.Email ==  exCon[0].Email )

  {
  
         newCon.addError('Duplicate Contact Found');
    
  }

 }
 

}

}

it only matches the first one on the list

guys. I get it. Thanks a lot!

this should fix it..

trigger dt on Contact (before insert, before update) {

for (Contact newCon : Trigger.New) {

if (newCon.email != null)

 {

List <Contact> exCon = [Select email from Contact where AccountId = :newCon.AccountId AND Email = :newCon.email Limit 1];

if (exCon.size() > 0)

  {
         newCon.addError('Duplicate Contact Found');
  
  
  }

 }
 

}

}
