Error 424 in sfUpdate, Object Required

What steps will reproduce the problem?
1. Using the EE connector
2. Try to update a Custom Number field
3.

What is the expected output? What do you see instead?
Expect to update the field. Get an Error message: Error 424 in sfUpdate_New, 
Object Required

What version of the product are you using? On what operating system?
Win Vista. Also Win 7. With Excel 2003, 2007. EE connector.

Please provide any additional information below. Code seems to be attempting 
convert types and fails to convert percentages to decimals eg, '10%' to '0.01'. 
It attempts to access a non-existent property of the variant data type. The 
attached repair seems to work, but not well tested. Need to remove the fixed2 
suffix before installing as per original.

Product description cut after 1023 characters

What steps will reproduce the problem?
1. Insert/Update a product to the Products2 Table
2. Have a Product Description width more than 1023 chars

The expected result is a new/updated Product with the correct Description. 
Instead only the first 1023 characters of the description are transferred (the 
product description is a "long text" with 4000 character limit in salesforce).
If i update the product via the webinterface, everything works as intended.

Seen with Office 2010 on Windows 7 32bit with Salesforce EE

Rich Text Field types not shown in Excel Connector

it cannot be read. However, I think the raw text for that field should be 
returned and rendered.

What do you see instead? I do not see the fields that are of that type.

"Invalid Range, missing data type..." error when querying currency fields

1. I create a new record that has a currency field 
2. The record gets created correctly incl. the currency field and its value
3. When querying the exact same record and with the fields that I just created, 
I get "Invalid Range, missing data type, or other error, type is: Account, Type 
mismatch"

I have been using excel connector a lot for a couple of years without any 
problems. Recently I started getting these errors with all currency fields. 
Upgrading to the most recent version (Winter11) of the Excel Connector did not 
help.

We use multicurrency in SF and have Professional Edition with API enabled. I 
have Win7 with Office 2007, Winter11 excel connector.

Inability to retrieve more than 32767 rows

What steps will reproduce the problem?
1. Try to query an object (for example, Assets) that contains more than 32767 
records (2^15-1, which is the maximum value of a 16-bit signed integer)


What is the expected output? What do you see instead?
* All rows should be returned, if Excel supports it (this would make dealing 
with asset imports/updates much easier since we would not need to use multiple 
worksheets do determine if records are already loaded or not)
* Instead, only 32767 rows are returned.  The proper amount of records is 
listed on the status bar, but only 32767 rows are retrieved (Excel 2010, at 
least, can handle over 1 million rows/worksheet)


What version of the product are you using? On what operating system?  With what 
Salesforce.com edition?
* Using the Winter'11_PE version of the 
plugin.(sforce_connect_pe_winter11.zip).  This issue also existed on the 6.16 
version (sforce_connect_616pe.zip).  
* Operating system is Windows 7 Pro, 64-bit.
* Salesforce version is the Professional Edition.


Please provide any additional information below.
* Excel version is Excel 2010

Query selected rows - query stops after error

First of all thanks for creating this, the excel-connector is brilliant.

I have a list of account IDs which need various fields updating.

To do this I run the table query wizard, select the object and then the fields 
and on step 3 close the wizard so I'm left with the relevant columns and a 
blank table.

I paste the IDs into the left most column then highlight the cells and select 
query selected rows and this populates all the columns and I can update as 
required.

All so far so good, the issue I have is with records which have been 
subsequently deleted, when I run the query and it hits an ID which no longer 
exists I receive the following error:

Salesforce: Update()
invalid Range, missing data type, or other error, type is: Account Object 
variable or With block variable not set

Understandable since the account record in question has been deleted but how 
can I get the query to carry on querying the other rows?

Currently I receive the error and the cell is highlighted in yellow, I skip the 
dodgy one and select the next bunch or rows and run the query again, it 
populates the data until it hits a deleted one and I again have to stop, select 
the next batch and run again which is very time consuming.

Many thanks in advance.

Dean

    V3.0

  - OS
    WinXP(SP3)

  - Salesforce.com edition
    EE and DE

Please provide any additional information below.
  -- Improvised workaround (For your information) --

  1. Open standard module named "utils".
  2. Modify function sfQueryValueFormat as follows.
    The case closure in this function detects and adjusts each type of value, though. 
    You know, Date type value should be sent as like "YYYY-MM-DD", but the adjustment format the value to "yyyy-mm-ddTHH:MM:SS.000Z".

    So I added If closure.

    If (typ = "datetime") Then
       sfQueryValueFormat = Format$(vlu, "yyyy-mm-ddTHH:MM:SS.000Z")
    Else
       sfQueryValueFormat = Format$(vlu, "yyyy-mm-dd")
    End If

  I hope this workaround helps you.
  Thank you.

Bug with multiple fields with the same label

What steps will reproduce the problem?
1. Set up a custom field on Lead with Label="Phone" and API Name = Phone__c
2. When I run a query on Leads, I get the correct headers displayed in the 
worksheet, but the query fails with a messagebox citing a duplicate field 
on Phone__c.
3.

What is the expected output? What do you see instead? I expect the query 
to succeed. It fails as above.

What version of the product are you using? On what operating system?
Connector V9.1 running versus SFDC EE instance. Win Vista 32. Excel 2003 
SP3.

Please provide any additional information below.
I have looked at the source code and written some workaround code 
(attached). It is not that pretty, but I don't know the code well. I think 
that there will be a more elegant solution. The error results from the 
code in sfFieldLabelToName_slow always picking up the first of the 2 
identical labels.

Pat 2 of date fix plus some other suggestions

Hi,

I'm the mikeol who provided the change in 6.02.

I sent in an additional fix and some other ideas but they haven't been adopted. 
 The additional fix (MO'L 002) in the attached is necessary for 
"non-americanised" dates when doing row queries.

The other customisation I have made may not suit everyone.  It includes a 
technique for caping the returned rows at a given count and "silent" logon and 
queries.

I hope this is of value.

Attached is a customised sforce_connect.xla 16.03 (2011 07 14) zipped

Cheers.

error message: no Object Id found in the column header row

Hi,
I have install the Connector last year and it was working perfectly (it's a 
great tool!), but suddently I am not able any more to use it again. For any 
attemp I try (for instance, using the option Insert selected row), I 
systematically get the two following error messages:

Microsoft Excel
---------------------------
no Object Id found in the column header row
---------------------------
OK   

and once I click OK I get: 

Salesforce Excel Add-In
---------------------------
Salesforce: Query() 
invalid Range, missing data type, or other error, 
type is: Asset
Application-defined or object-defined error
---------------------------
OK   

If I send my file to a colleague, he has no problem to create assets thus using 
it.

I have tried to uninstall the SForce Office Toolkit, remove the Excel-Connector 
and then install again everything, I have tried both versions of the connector 
(Winter 11 and EE one), nothing changes, I always get these both messages.

OS: Windows XP SP3
Connector version currently installed: 16.02 - 11/23/2010 (but I have tried 
several)
sforce Toolkit for Office currently installed: V4.0
MS Excel 2007
SalesForace.com 11 (I do not remember if we are on the professional or 
Enterprise Edition.

I hope You get all the information needed.
Please do you have any idea on how to solve my problem?

Thanks
Mariline

SForce Office Toolkit

We have professional licenses for Salesforce, and needed Excel connector for 
extracting data and having VBA program to perform additional logic.

We have used the Sforce Office Toolkit for this purpose and downloaded this 
from 
http://code.google.com/p/excel-connector/

SForce_Office_Toolkit_MSI.zip -> Is this being supported or built by 
Salesforce? We have seen this is incompatible with Windows version and in few 
OS and Excel combination this connector freeze in few machines, wondering if 
anyone has used this connector and have experienced similar problems.
Especially on Windows 7 machine this gets freeze in few machines, not 
consistent though.

Also, we are looking to see how to avoid such occurances  - maybe by putting 
time out in the VBA code. Also, When we do the Update or Create, there is no 
way for us to say whether the transaction was successful or not, is there any 
way we coudl achieve this.

Any help on this is really appreciated... thankyou for looking into this

Cannot view records that were modified on day of querying

What steps will reproduce the problem?
1. Go to 'SForce Table Query Wizard' in the sforce Connector Add-In
2. Select 'Account' as the 'Table to Query'
3. Leave filter blank (want all account records)

What is the expected output? 
All accounts

What do you see instead?
All records that have been modified today or previously (so all records)

What version of the product are you using? 
The latest one I think... SForce_Office_Toolkit_MSI zipfile and 
sforce_connect.xla Sorry, I can't find the dates.

On what operating system?  
Microsoft Windows XP Professional, Version 2002

With what Salesforce.com edition?
Enterprise Edition

Please provide any additional information below.

If possible, please enable a 'less than or equal to' operator, this would solve 
the problem. Is it possible to do a logic filter using two queries???

At first, I could only view the records that had been modified in the last 7 
days. Then I started to filter by 'System Modstamp less than 10/31/11' (today's 
date) and I did get the vast majority of my records but of course not those 
that happened to be modified today. When I tried to filter by 'System Modstamp 
less than 11/01/11' (tomorrow's date) I could only see those records that had 
been modified in the last week. 

I also tried to filter by 'Last Modified Date less than 10/31/11' and 'Account 
name not equal to ' zero, but to no avail.

Single Sign-On (SAML) support

It would be really useful if it were possible to use the Excel Connector for 
users where SAML authentication is in use.
