Search for custom object records

Hi all

 

I have a scenario where I have a lookup between a custom object and opportunity. But in the search results when  search with opportunity name it should also display that custom object record which has the same name as that of Opportunity. It is not possible with standard search. I think it can achieved by visual force component. If anybody worked on a scenario like this and have a sample code please share.

 

Thanks

It is possible for standard global search. Explain in detail which kind of standard search you are referring....

If you are talking about the salesforce native search , then only need to enable the serach on the custom object and this will be displayed in the serach result.

using standard sf search when I search with opportunity name it is displayed in results. But I want the custom object record which has the same name as opportunity record also be displayed. But it is not displayed using standard search.

what i meant is by searching with a opportunity name, I want child objects of that opportunity should also be displayed in search results.

Okay, In that case you need to go with the Visual Force page.
