API Name : API_Name__c : object1__c [Lookup]

API Name : APIName__c : object__c [Text] - Populated by trigger.

Now i am trying to show the text field as a link text in related list page layout [ behave as lookup] in asset related list page layout.

Dont want to show the original lookup here. Any idea ?

You can create a new formula field of type HYPERLINK, and use appropriate link and text from respective fields.
