Redirect after new Account

After I insert a new Account I want to redirect to a Visual Force page instead of the Account Details page.

Is this possible?

Hi MacCauley
Use PageReference Method in your controller to redirect to another VF page.
Try this below code-- 
Controller--

public class MyExtension 
{
    public Account ac {get;set;}
    
    public MyExtension(ApexPages.StandardController controller) 
    {
        ac = new Account();       
    }
    
    public PageReference save()
    {
        insert ac;
        PageReference pg = new PageReference('/apex/VehicleInfo');
        pg.setRedirect(true);
        return pg;
    }

}
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

VF Page--

<apex:page standardController="Account" extensions="MyExtension">
  <apex:form >
      <apex:pageBlock >
          <apex:pageBlockSection >
              <apex:inputField value="{!ac.name}"/>
              <apex:inputField value="{!ac.rating}"/>
          </apex:pageBlockSection>
          
          <apex:commandButton action="{!save}" value="Save"/>
      </apex:pageBlock>
  </apex:form>
</apex:page>
If this helps you, mark it as solved.
Thanks

Hi Gareth, 

This is not possible using Salesforce standard Account creation page. You will have to develop custom VF page and will have to override this VF page on new Account button to accomplish this requirement, as directed by @Sandeep.

Thanks all.

I'll go and do that and come back with a solved answer in a few days
