Visual Force For One Record Type

Hi,

I'm getting a chance to do my first major Visualforce exercise.  I've got a custom object that has several record types.  I've got a custom controller and visual force page that is designed for when you create a new instance of one particular record type.

What I'd like to know if there's any way to capture it so I can go to that VisualForce page when that record type is selected when creating a new record.  I can get the visual force page to replace the tab content, but that's not really what I want to do -- I'm only interested in going to the Visualforce page when a new record is created of that record type.

Any suggestions?

Thanks,
Michael Lee

Michael,

I believe that I am having the same issue you are. There is a thread started below and we have escalated the issue within Salesforce.com. I will post more information at the thread below.

Thanks!  Yes, it does sound like it is the same sort of question.  I'll look over in that thread as well.

I posted an idea on the Idea Exchange that I think would make this easier:
