Hi Farhan,

Such an issue can happen when the DataTextField property of the RadAutoCompleteBox is not set. Please revise your code accordingly to address the problem. Also please have a look at the sample code I tried which works fine at my end.

ASPX:

<telerik:RadAutoCompleteBox ID="RadAutoCompleteBox1" runat="server" DropDownHeight="150px"
    Skin="Default" DataSourceID="SqlDataSource1" DataTextField="ContactName" DropDownWidth="200px"
    InputType="Text">
</telerik:RadAutoCompleteBox>
<asp:SqlDataSource ID="SqlDataSource1" runat="server" ConnectionString="<%$ ConnectionStrings:NorthwindConnectionString %>"
    SelectCommand="select ContactName from [Customers]"></asp:SqlDataSource>

Thanks,
Shinu.
