Hi Meer,

 

Just you need to create a class as extension that would used for custom logic, plz refer the below code -

 

//------------page---------------

<apex:page standardController="Journal__c" extensions="MyExtension">

<apex:form>

<apex:pageBlock>

<apex:pageBlockButton>

  <apex:commandButton value="Save" action="{!save}"/>

</apex:pageBlockButton>

 

<apex:pageBlockSection>

     <apex:pageBlockSectionItem>

        <apex:inputField value="{!newLine.name}"/>

    <apex:pageBlockSectionItem>

<apex:pageBlockSection>

</apex:pageBlock>

</apex:form>

</apex:page>

 

 

//-----------------class----------------------

 

public class MyExtension

{

public Line__c newLine{get; set;}

 

public MyExtension(ApexPages.standardController stdn)

{

newLine=new Line__c();

}

 

public PageReference save()

{

  insert newLine;

  return null;

}

 

}

 

As example in this page you would be able to create Line__c object's record and you can also use the same pattern to create another object's record in this page.

Hi Meer,

 

You need to go your custom object detail page and edit the page layout of that object, follow the below steps -

 

Goto Setup--> App Setup--> Create--> Objects--> Click on "Journal" object link --> scroll down the page to "PageLayout Section" --> Click on edit link

 

Now you will have layout page, scroll down the page to related list section and now here you have a setting image for every related list header--> just clcik on the image  --> change layout display ---> click on save.

Hi Meer,

 

Do you want to add/remove columns from related list?

 

If yes then Go to pagelayout of Journal Object-->You will se Line Object in the related list section-->Click On Related List Properties section

-->Add/Remove cloumns for Related List  "Line" object

 

Thanks,

Devendra

Actually I am looking to design a layout in which I can create a new record for the realted list being on the same page.. Let me make it more clear, I have two custom objects 'Journal' and 'Line'. In Journal I have a related list of 'Line', now when i click 'New Line' It is directed to New Line page where I can create New Line, now I dont want to migrate to another page but want to have all the feilds of Line object in the same pagel block or section where i can create a New LIne. I guess its quie brief explanation to make u understand.

 

Regards,

Hi Meer,

 

It is not possible with related list, however you can add a section in layout and create a visualforce page to create NewLine records and drop this page in that section. And make sure when you create page that standard controller must be NewLine_apiName so that it can be available for NewLine object's layout.
