Hi folks,
I have been trying to get some help to get me started, but haven't got any.
I have been going through the site to get answers to my questions, but more I browse through, more confused I get. Can someone point me in the right direction?
I want to build an application to integrate Salesforce with our legacy application.
I want the user to be able to select an account and submit a process request to our application (using XML).
So I have created appropriate custom objects and custom references. I have also customized the page layout for my custom object. The lookup for Account works fine in my UI. Now I want to extend this form that I developed using CustomForce.
Upon lookup of the account, I want to pre-populate few fields (like Ticker, Address fields) on my custom object form. How do I do that? Can I add javascript event (on change?) to the Account Name field? On change, can I get access to the selected account object?
I want to get rid of default buttons like Save, Save and New and add my own button "Process". Can I do that?
Once the request is sent to my application, response is sent back. I want to parse this response and save data to the tables. How can I access my custom object in javascript and save it?
Is custom force the right approach for this application?
Cheers,
-RD

Depending on what you are trying to do, you may be better off creating a web tab / scontrol "view" of the custom object data.
Can you point me to some examples of using web tab / scontrols effectively?
Especially, we want to maintain the salesforce look to the new application that we are developing.
Also, if I wrote my own scontrol to generate the UI, can I take advantage of customizations that can be done using customforce?
For example, how can I handle user specific customizations (field hiding, field level security et al) in the UI generated using scontrol?
