Hi,

Try to query like this:

SELECT Image__c, (SELECT User__r.name FROM Employee_Detail__c.User__r) FROM Employee_Detail__c

Refer: http://www.salesforce.com/us/developer/docs/dbcom_soql_sosl/Content/sforce_api_calls_soql_relationships.htm

Hi Vinita,

Thanks for your reply, I have tried this and code is get saved but getting another error while loading the page , below is the error message.

"caused by: System.QueryException: Didn't understand relationship 'User__r' in field path. If you are attempting to use a custom relationship, be sure to append the '__r' after the custom relationship name. Please reference your WSDL or the describe call for the appropriate names."
This is is the exact qurey which I have modified after your suggestion 
allemployees= Database.Query('select id,Image__c,(select User__r.name from Employee_Detail__c.user__r) from Employee_Detail__c' );
Any Idea,please let me know

Thanks

Try this:

SELECT Image__c, (SELECT Name FROM User__r) FROM Employee_Detail__c

If this doesn't work, please try to understand how the objects are related and which kind of query should be written. Refer following document which covers various scenarios.
