Formula Value Export
Hi All,
question regarding Formula field Export. We are currently performing data cleaning in our Org and would like to see the actuall formulas behind the formula filds in order to determin if they are useful or not. What I mean is that for example if I have a formula on the Lead which pulls Owner's Division value I would actually like to see $Owner.Division
So when I run a report/export/some tool I would see something like:
Lead Owner Division , Lead_Owner_Division__c, Formula (Text) , $User.Division
Do you know of any such tool available or if I can actually do it via DataLoader or the Workbench?
Thanks,
Art.

For this you need meatada fiel export for the object in which you are interested to get the formulas.
Just goto workbench and export the desired object.using below package.xml
Create a package.xml file and save in local drive
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<Package xmlns="http://soap.sforce.com/2006/04/metadata">
<fullName>test</fullName>
<types>
<members>PutAPINameOfYourCustomObjectHere</members>
<name>CustomObject</name>
</types>
<version>33.0</version>
</Package>

3.Hit export
4.Open the ZIP archive file
5.Open the .object file in any TEXT editor.
