Hi Krishnag,

 

I found the way to use the custom button in visual force page. Actually I was using the button to create the new opportunity in visual force page as,

 

<apex:commandButton action="{!URLFOR($Action.Opportunity.New)}" value="New Opportunity"/>

 

I just modified the action for the custom button as,

 

<apex:commandButton action="{!URLFOR($Action.Opportunity.New_TEST)}" value="Test Button"/>

 

where New_TEST is the desired custom button.

 

Tons of thanks

 

Manoj

hi manoj, 

 

can u eloborate your task. As of my understanding you want to create a button on VF page with the functionality same as what it does on standard page right?

 

If so since its is button on standard object you can directly use standard controller opportunity on VF page and create a botton and give the action as action{!custombutton)

Hi Krishnag,

 

Yes.. You are right.. I have a custom button on Opportunity object. It has some business logic in it. I have pasted the url pattern of that button below.

 

https://cs3.salesforce.com/006/e?ent=Opportunity&nooverride=1&RecordType={!IF( User.Account__c <> '','012Q0000000CmCZ','012300000004ISx')}&retURL=%2F006%2Fo&{!IF( User.Account__c <> '','opp4','')}={!IF( User.Account__c <> '',User.Account__c,'')}

 

Can you guide me how to use this button in visual force page ?

 

Thanks

Manoj
