I would like to update something in our external system every time a new opportunity is added. It looks like the workflow rules only support changing the ownership of tasks and sending email alerts. Is there any way to send the new opportunity id to an s-control that could then process it or is that out of bounds for the rules of SF integration? Is there something besides the workflow assignment that might do this?
Thanks in advance for any assistance you can provide.
I have a question regrading inserting content below the detail information on an opportunity. I would like to place the content from a custom s-control below the opportunity detail and above the products list. Essentially, it's a realted list from our system, but it's not from data in a custom object. Is there any way to place an s control there? I know that if our info was created as a custom object I could place it there, but that won't work for my present situation.
Also, is there any way to do the same thing below the "Recent Opportunities" on the first screen of the opportunities tab.
If neither of those are possible is my only option for accessing this content to provide a custom link to the s-control?

We have the situation that accessing SalesForce using webservices returns 18 char object IDs while using some of the other tools, eg. "Weekly Export Service", return 15 char IDs. What is the correct way in Java code to check if a 15 char ID refers to the same object as the 18 char ID? Is it simply a string prefix match or do we need to use some more complicated logic?
