check:

While it does not do exactly what u want, it does show you how to create relationships via a hook in a profile (which is the same thing used in user register)

Hi

WRT to creating the autocomplete -there is an MIH underway to include the ability to restrict a autocomplete 'out-of-the-box' to a certain group of contacts - that would essentially acheive what Xavier has described in his blog / the first part of your requirement. The current status is that $800 out of the required $1500 has been raised. Even if you do custom code something you will probably find that contributing towards this initiative may save you money at upgrade time.


This is the part of Lobo's code you should be focussing on


function civicrm_regsite_civicrm_postProcess( $class, &$form ) {
    if ( is_a( $form, 'CRM_Profile_Form_Edit' ) ) {
        $gid = $form->getVar( '_gid' );
        if ( $form->getVar( '_gid' ) == 3 ) {  // where 3 is the number of the form you are interested in
       $result =    civicrm_api('Relationship', 'Create', array('version' => 3, 'contact_id_a' => $form['values']['contact_id'], 'contact_id_b' => $form['values']['custom_2'], 'relationship_type_id' => 4,);// where 4 is the relationship type you want to create

if ($result['is_error'] ==1){
print_r("something needs fixing");
die;
        }
     }
}


Note that this is just an off -the top of my head guess. You would need to backport apiv3 for this to work (there is a thread on this forum about that) and I would use the civicrm_developer module (also on this forum) to capture the actual names of things rather than just my wild guesses
