Name prefix field on Contact
In the Contact edit there is a name prefix that allows you to select Mr. Mrs, Dr etc, but I find no reference to this field, and on the edit it appears to be apart of the FirstName field, however when you do and apex:inputfield with firstname it only shows an input box for the actual first name, not to mention that there is no way to save to this 'field' so if I wanted to make a custom contact create, it wont allow me to show/populate it on the record... Which leads me to think that I would need to make a custom field, but that isn't the answer. This field should be accessible via the API.
Have you tried the "Salutation" field?

Did you check this field? 'Salutation' I just looked in workbench and this field looks like the one u r looking for.
Thanks! thats it! lol you would think it would be named something a bit more prefix like lol
If it all made sense, where would be the fun in that? =)
do you happen to know if its possible to affect the standard lookup window that pops up on lookup fields? I was hoping to alter it to include a create page if the sobject(contat) isnt found?
