Button to Choose new task with Record Type pre-selected

Hi, i am having trouble building a list button that creates a new task that skips the record type selection stage and chooses the task RT I want. Button link is:

 

https://cs1.salesforce.com/00T/e?what_id={!CustomObject__c.Id}&retURL=%{!CustomObject__c.Id}&RecordType=012S0000000Ct8E&

 

But the new task always goes to the default. Some help much appreciated! thanks.

I can only get it to produce default task record type. Any help?

OK I have figured out how to pre select the record type but when saving it returns to homescreen, not to the object the task is associated with. Any help?

I want to pull a date into the start date for an event from the custom object it's linked to:

 

/00U/e?what_id={!Custom_Object__c.Id}&retURL=%2F{!Custom_Object__c.Id}&followup=1&tsk5="{!Custom_Object__c.Account_del__c}"&tsk12="Completed"&tskStart={!Custom_Object__c.Start__c}

 

Any help?

How were you able to do this?

Trying to figure this one out.

Which part? I think in the end I made only one record type available so it became a not big issue.

right sorry about that.

 

Just having a custom task to have the ability to select the Record Type pre-selected.

 

 

I tried: https://na3.salesforce.com/00T/e?what_id={!Account.Id}&tsk5="TestCall"&RecordType=01250000000Pz0k&tsk12="Completed"&retURL=%2F{!Account.Id}

 

That gave me an error stating that the Record Type does not exist...

 

From there, I tried to figure out if tsk5 or tsk# could represent the field Task Record Type (from here: http://salesforce.phollaio.com/tag/structure/)... but no avail.

 

Thanks.
