Yes,

 

We can get the id dynamically.

 

IF you are using Visual force page and controller then use in controller

String stdid = ApexPages.currentPage().getparameters().get('id')

  

This will get the id of the record and save into the stdid. And use that not in the above code.

 

OR

In the constructor of the controller code like this

 

Public Student__c) temstud {get;set;}
temstud = (Student__c)controller.getRecord();

 

 Here you can get the id of the record by "temstud.id"

Hi,

 

Get the record id and write like this in your method executed by Edit button 

 

PageReference Page = new PageReference(‘/’+ id of that record  +’/e’)

 

 If you want to controle ther redirection of page after saving then

 

PageReference Page = new PageReference(‘/’+that id of the record  +’/e’ +'&retURL=/' +  id of the record  );
