Hello
I am not sure about the exact help the user will get if we make the text appear as link in auto complete.
Anyway, have you tried setting the UI-Control as pxLink at property level directly ?

Hi Satyanarayana,
Where do you prefer the photograph to be displayed?
My understanding to your question is that you have an auto-complete. Its results (drop downs) are a list of link values (text).
When you mentioned that "I need to display that link value as photograph in results", what did it really mean?
Do you want the auto-complete drop downs to be shown as photographs?
or you want a user to select one of the drop downs and then to launch a photograph?
Can you clarify for this?
Thanks,
Susan

Hi Satyanarayana,
I did a search on this topic and found out this mesh post. It uses overlay to implement advanced autocomplete feature.
