Hi guys,

I was wondering how do you following a Chatter uploaded file in apex code please? i know how to following a record or a user or how to copy a record FeedItem into another record but i'm not so sure how different it is to follow a file so the user who is already following that record gets the updates for the file as well...

Any information would be great help.

Thank you very much for your help in advance.

Dear All,

If i need to update a list of WorkflowRule objects using the Metadata api update() method, do i need to create the Workflow objects to hold the list of WorkflowRule objects belong to a Workflow file?

At the moment, i'm parsing in a list of workflow xml files retrieved using an Ant script and created a list of WorkflowRule objects. After that i put the list into an UpdateMetadata[] array. However, i'm getting the following errors:

Must specify a {http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema-instance}type attribute value for the {http://soap.sforce.com/2006/04/metadata}metadata element

Anyone could give me some inputs for what i might be missing would be great.

Thank you so much for your help in advance.

Dear All,

I just started learning Apex and Visualforce page and i'm trying to make a simple form that send the Salutation, First Name and Last Name and save it in the Contact object.

However, i don't understand how to display the Contact.Name field like the edit Contact page under the Contacts tab where you have a Salutation dropdown list, First Name input field and a Last Name input field.

Could somebody be so kind to give me an example please?

Thank you very much for your advice.

Hello, I followed the tutorials to create a VisualForce page that lists all the records on my object:

    public DisplayMarginEscalators[] getMarginEscalators()
    {
    
        if (marginescalatorsHigh == null)
        {
            marginescalatorsHigh = new DisplayMarginEscalatorsHigh[]{};
        
            for (Pipeline_Tracker__c pt : [SELECT Subcategory__c, Account__c,        
                 Sales_Pole__c, Probability__c, Q1_Revenue__c, SD_Owner__c,
        FROM Pipeline_Tracker__c          
        WHERE Year__c = 2011])
            {
                marginescalators.add(new DisplayMarginEscalators(pt));     
            }
        }
        return marginescalators;
    }

 However, what I want to do is see if I can create another method that sets up a loop to go through my record collection and collect a total amount for the object: Q1_Revenue__c. I'm not sure how to do this, though.

I've been playing around with a for loop:

Integer x;
Integer total;
public Integer getTotal()
{
   for (x=0;x<marginescalators.size();x+1)
   {
       total = total + marginescalators[x].Q1_Revenue__c;
   }
}

But, I'm having trouble getting it working. Does anyone have any insight into how I can collect the running total for this amount? Please note, that I cannot use a SUM function because I have already used up my limit for SOQL queries.
