[SalesForce] Dynamically assign a sobject field name

Can i dynamically assign a sobject field a value.?
Due to the poor data model setup of existing I am forced to do this

My issue is fieldname on object is stored at some other object.Say for eg i have a string fieldname where i store actualfieldname of the object.Now i want to update this field of the object as below

string fieldname = 'Name'
test__C c = new test__C();
c.fieldname = 'Hello';

This throws me an error.Is there any other way to achieve this?

Yes, that is possible (see also the documentation for all sObject methods):

Use c.put(fieldname,'Hello')

I think this should work

  Map<String,Schema.SObjectType> gd = Schema.getGlobalDescribe();
                    Schema.SObjectType sobjType = gd.get(Field);
                    Schema.DescribeSObjectResult r = sobjType.getDescribe();
                    Map<String,Schema.SObjectField> M = r.fields.getMap();
                    fieldMap=M;

[SalesForce] How to traverse territories in Salesforce using SOQL query

I rewrote your code:

// Fetch Region 3 data 
List<Territory2> Region3 = ([SELECT Id, Name from Territory2 WHERE Name='Region 3']); 
System.debug(Region3[0]); 

// Fetch Assigned Users to Region 3 
List<UserTerritory2Association> utList2 = new List<UserTerritory2Association>([SELECT Id, RoleInTerritory2, Territory2Id, UserId from UserTerritory2Association WHERE Territory2Id =:Region3.Id ]);
System.debug(utList2);

That should do it. You were missing a colon. Plus, even if your query will return only one record, it's a good idea to query to a list anyway and then to take the first item in that list.
