Return to parent object after save in child object

Hi,

Is there a way to return to the parent object after saving in a child object?  I could probably do this by created a visualforce page, and then overridiing the save method with an extension.  But I'm hoping for a simpler method.

Thanks,

    You need a returl parameter as part of the request to get the child object page - the only way to do this outside of VF at the moment is through a custom new button that opens the standard child page and passes the returl parameter.  You'd also need to pass any information required from the parent through url hacks:
