Hello All,

    I am creating a custom button that will create a lead automatically from my custom object, pass over field values to the new created lead from the custom object, and link the newly created lead to the original custom object. I am having trouble with the third part. Basically. I need to store the ID of the newly created Lead, so it can be connected to my custom object, please see below:

{!REQUIRESCRIPT("/soap/ajax/13.0/connection.js")}

    var lead = new sforce.SObject("Lead");    
    var email = '{!Client_Email__c.From_Email_Address__c}';
    var name = '{!Client_Email__c.From__c}';
    var emaiIID=  '{!Client_Email__c.Id}';    
    lead.email=email;
    lead.company = name;
    lead.lastname = name;  
    var result = sforce.connection.create([lead]);  

    var leadID = '{!Lead.Id}'   ;         

    var clientemail = new sforce.SObject("Client_Email__c")
    clientemail.ID = emaiIID
    clientemail.Lead__c = leadID
    var result = sforce.connection.update([clientemail]);


    if (result[0].success=='false') {
         alert(result[0].errors.message);
    } else {
         location.reload(true);
    }

  The code highlighted in bold is causing issues because it is being passed a null value. The lead ID is assigned after I create the object, but i cannot seem to find a way to reference the newly created lead. Any help or guidance on this would be greatly appreciated.

Many Thanks!
