Aspx code:

<script type ="text/javascript">
    function setContextKey() {
        find('AutoCompExt2').set_contextKey($get("%=TxtSyllabus.ClientID%>").value)
        alert(("<%=TxtSyllabus.ClientID %>").value)
        }
script>
<asp:TextBox ID = "TxtSem" runat = "server" Width = "200px" onkeyup="setContextKey()">asp:TextBox>
<asp:AutoCompleteExtender ID = "AutoCompExt2" runat = "server" MinimumPrefixLength="2" CompletionInterval="100" FirstRowSelected = "false"
        TargetControlID= "TxtSem" EnableCaching = "false" CompletionSetCount = "10" ServiceMethod = "SearchSem" UseContextKey= "true" >asp:AutoCompleteExtender>`

VB Code:

<System.Web.Script.Services.ScriptMethod(), System.Web.Services.WebMethod()> _
Public Shared Function SearchSem(ByVal prefixText As String, ByVal count As Integer, ByVal contextKey As String) As List(Of String)
    Try
        Dim cnn As New SqlConnection
        Dim cmd As New SqlCommand
        Dim ds As New Data.DataSet
        Dim SyllabusName = Mid(contextKey, 1, Len(contextKey) - 4)
        Dim Year = Mid(contextKey, Len(contextKey) - 4, Len(contextKey))


        cnn.ConnectionString = ConfigurationManager.ConnectionStrings("excelconn").ToString()
        cmd.CommandText = "Select Semester From MastLookup where SyllabusName='" & SyllabusName & "' And SyllabusYear='" & Year & "' And Semester=@SearchText + '%'"
        cmd.Parameters.AddWithValue("SearchText", prefixText)
        cmd.CommandType = Data.CommandType.Text
        cmd.Connection = cnn
        cnn.

You should be finding the AutoCompleteExtender by its BehaviorID, not ID (BehaviorIDextends functionality of the DOM element returned, i.e. providing the set_contextKey function). You're also missing a $ in front of the find function.

<script type="text/javascript">
    function setContextKey() {
        $find('AutoCompBehavior2').set_contextKey($get("%=TxtSyllabus.ClientID%>").value)
        alert(("<%=TxtSyllabus.ClientID %>").value)
    }
script>

<asp:TextBox ID="TxtSem" runat="server" Width="200px" onkeyup="setContextKey()">asp:TextBox>
<asp:AutoCompleteExtender ID="AutoCompExt2" BehaviorID="AutoCompBehavior2" runat="server" MinimumPrefixLength="2" CompletionInterval="100" FirstRowSelected="false"
    TargetControlID="TxtSem" EnableCaching="false" CompletionSetCount="10" ServiceMethod="SearchSem" UseContextKey="true">asp:AutoCompleteExtender>

Also, you probably meant to bind setContextKey to changes to TxtSyllabus, not txtSem.
