Hey fellows,
Here i got something new for you all, now in this post We are going to have a custom Look-up of "Account" thanks to Jeff Douglas here is the original post Click here
Functionalities of the look-up is same as the standard salesforce look-up have but in this one you will have a "New" named tab will will help you to create a new record in Account object and at the same time User can fill of the same record in the look-up field.
Isn't that great.!!!!!
You need to create a Field Set in Account Named as "CustomAccountLookup". then proceed for the codes.
The Red marked tab "New Account" can be used to create new Account record.
Look at the snap below how it looks when user will click on the look-up
Here is the field set used to create a new record of Account
