How to duplicate a standard Salesforce button?

I have a Case object page layout with Case Comments and Emails related lists. I would like to duplicate the New button for the Case Comments and the Send an Email button for the Emails, which are both standard buttons.

By duplicate, I mean I would like to copy them and simply add them to the very top of the page where they could sit by the Edit, Delete and Close Case buttons.

Is this possible? If not, how do I approach triggering a new email, or a new Case Comment with a custom button?

Many thanks

Yeah, it is possible. Just go to the Case object settings and create a new Custom Button:

  • Label: new case (or what ever)
  • Display Type: Detail Page Button
  • Behavior: Execute JavaScript
  • Content Source: Onclick JavScript

For the code area add the following commands:

  • Select Field Type: $Action
  • Insert Field: Your object

The code will be automatically inserted. Put it to the javascript window.open function like this:

window.open("{!URLFOR($Action.Case.NewCase)}");

Noe just save it and insert the new button to your standard page layout.
