Let me see if I understand, you want to pass the related Id via URL but it is not displaying?

I didn't get it.

 

You can send the field value in the URL address with the id of the field (you can get the id of the field looking at the object settings, openning the field and copying the id on the URL), for example:

 

Idofthefield={!Opportunity.Id}

 

It works.

 

Let me know if I understood it well.

Hi

Thanks for your response.

Idea is a standard object and Related to opportunity,Related to Client, Related to Lead and Related to Call_Report custom fields are there in Additional section.

There is a custom button and need to place on Oppertunity, Account, Lead and Call_Report  button on Opportunity detail section.

Related to fields are all look up fields.

 

I have written below URL code in button logic.

https://cs10.salesforce.com/ideas/editIdea.apexp?c=09aJ00000004CgR&retU​RL=%2Fideas%2FideaList.apexp

 

For opportunity

My requirement is onclick of button Related to fields should auto populate opportunity name in that look up fields.

 

I have tried to pass all possible way but not able to display existing opportunity name in that look up fields.
