So do you just want to show plain text instead? – Andrew Fawcett Jan 3 at 9:15
no i want to give some other link on thet instead of by default link of Master record. – Pankaj Jan 3 at 9:29

I just noticed your using apex:commandLink, so the link will be to a method on your controller class. That method will be determining what happens when the user clicks the link. It may help to share some sample code in your question btw. – Andrew Fawcett Jan 3 at 10:09
Please consider including a snippet from your visualforce to help us understand what you're doing now and what you're trying to change. – Benj Jan 3 at 14:02
hi,where you are showing that look up value just show its name suppose your lookup field value is look__c so just use lookup__r.Name.definitely work!!! – Pankaj Feb 4 at 13:18

The solution is to show Name field of the related object instead of just lookup field on the referencing one.

Supposing your lookup field API name is look__c - just use lookup__r.Name. Definitely works!!!

It was listed in a review menu (system flags some too short answers as suspicious and at 1000+ you're expected to care about the site, fix simple code formatting or grammar problems). There was nothing wrong with the core of your answer, it's just a bit more readable and useful for whoever else has same problem :) – eyescream Feb 5 at 7:57

If it's a simple link you are looking for use <apex:outputLink> instead. If you need to call a controller then stick with <apex:commandLink> but set the PageReference appropriately as the return value of your method (returning null should stop you navigating anywhere).
