Objects in Force.com

Hi Folks, Today I am writing about Objects in Force.com. In previous article we have discussed about various components of force.com applications with an overview of  the Salesforce data model so diving deep into it we are going to discuss objects in force.com. Basically, there are two types of objects in force.com. Table below is showing some main objects as example - Standard Objects Custom Objects MyCustomObject__c Account Contact Lead Opportunity Campaign Case Quote Note:- All Standard Objects are not mentioned. As we all know that Objects in Salesforce are the database tables and Standard Objects are predefined by Salesforce and those objects which are defined by us, are Custom Objects. So in the above table MyCustomObject__C is a custom object with a sample name. “__c” is a suffix, added by Salesforce to differentiate between Standard objects and Custom objects.
