Hopefully I can get some help here. I created this trigger to update the account name under contact. This code runs ok when I do single record insert and update. It also works ok when I do batch inserts. However, it will not do updates when I run batch updates. Am I missing something? Why would it run ok under batch insert but not batch update? Thanks for your help.

trigger updateContact on Contact (before insert, before update) {
    Set<String> acclist = new Set<String>();
    Map<String, Account> accountlist = new Map<String, Account>();

    for (Contact c : Trigger.new)
    {
        if (c.lookupAccountName__c != null)
            acclist.add(c.lookupAccountName__c);
    }   

    if (acclist.size() > 0)
    {               
        for (Account a2 : [Select Id, Name from Account where Name in :acclist]){
            if (a2 !=null)
                accountlist.put(a2.Name, a2);
            else
                accountlist.put(a2.Name, null);
        }
    }   

    for (Contact c : Trigger.new)
    {
        if (c.lookupAccountName__c != null) {
            if (accountlist.get(c.lookupAccountName__c) != null)
                c.AccountId = accountlist.get(c.lookupAccountName__c).Id;
        }
    }   
}

I have a few flex controls embedded in Salesforce (Accounts and contacts). They used to work fine until recently. Now anytime a user goes to where the flex control is, they see a black box. If you hover the mouse over the control it shows "Click to activate and use this control." If I click on it then the flex control shows up and displays the data. This does not seem to be an issue with Firefox but only with IE6. Anyone else has experienced this? Any pointers on how to fix it?

Thanks

I created my first trigger and test class in my developer's account. I got the coverage and no issues when testing. I decided to deploy the trigger to our sandbox so some of our users can test it out before we push it out to production. When I do the 'deploy to server' from my developer account, everything goes fine. Trigger and test class is pushed into sandbox. However, if I run the test in Sandbox with the test class I pushed from my developer account I get an assert which I didn't get on my developer account. Any ideas why it would work on my Developer account but not in Sanbox?

Thanks

I have been trying to get outlook to sync with my salesforce account, and it has been very frustrating.  Despite repeated attempts I get the error "Failed to log into Salesforce.com"

 

I have check my username and password probably 50x now to make sure I am not crazy.  Could it be in issue with a firewall or exchange?  How can I fix this?

I have been told that 1 million is the optimal limit for records in an object but not what exactly this means and I cannot find this very important topic discussed in any of the documents.  

 

My questions are: 

1) How bad is this performance hit as you pass one million? 

2) Is the performance hit exponential?  (ex: after 1 million you see a 1% slow down but after 2 million you see a 10% slow down)

3) Is there a hard limit?

 

I cannot find this information anywhere and it is very important as my client will be going over a million records within 20 days and does not have a purge plan in place.

 

 

I am using <apex:inputField> tag in a Visualforce page to render a User lookup field on a custom object. However, unlike the standard Edit screen the VF page doesn't render the picklist that's in front of the lookup fild which promts for type of user (User or Partner User). Basically, no partner users can be selected from the VF page.

 

Is this a known limitation of inputField component? Or am I missing a setting of some sort?

 

Thanks in advance.

Hi All,

I want to replicate the Clone button as much as possible but with a few changes and I'm not sure how salesforce have done it.

When you click clone now you are taken to a copy of the object in edit mode. Has the copy actually been created at that point and we are just editing or are we just in a 'new' object window?

Also some of the Opportunity custom fields I have made read-only for certain users but I've noticed that clicking clone will still populate those fields in the new object. When I tried to replicate that behaviour I am told that I don't have permission to edit those fields. How does the default Clone button get around that issue?

TIA

Ben

I'm building a flex based Scontrol and I get the following error:

TypeError: Error #1009: Cannot access a property or method of a null object reference.
    at mx.utils::URLUtil$/getProtocol()
    at com.salesforce::Connection/::_invoke()
    at com.salesforce::Connection/::invoke()
    at com.salesforce::Connection/query()

Any ideas?

Any ideas on a better way to debug that will give more specific error messages?
