Hi,

 

Please help.  I want to display a Quote Contact Name in plain text in VF page but it is displaying as a link instead.

Here's my code which is displaying as a link.

 

<apex:outputfield value="{!Quote.ContactId}"/>

 

Thanks and Regards,

Del

Try using "outputText" instead.

Hi, am using a custom contact lookup field in opportunity , so when I pull out this field to my PDF quote, it shows up with a link over the name. I would like to have plain text, the command I used for this is

<apex:outfield value="{!Opportunity.Contact_Name__c}"/> this shows contact name with hyperlink Carl Johnson. when I use <apex:outputText Value... it gives me contact ID..

How can I solve this problem

 

Thanks,
