Winforms -- multi select dropdown list

Good morning,

I'm shopping around for a dropdown list control that allows me to select multiple items. Something akin to the CheckedListbox, but in dropdown list form (I don't want it to take up a big chunk of the screen). At this point I'm pretty convinced there is no such control built-in .NET.

Note this is Winforms, not ASP.NET.

Any suggestions? Thanks. -Alan.

Seriously? Jeez. This is exactly what I needed -- I wish I had posted this 24 hours ago! Kudos.

In the end I gave up on this checkbox -- it's not as well polished as I first thought (in terms of recognizing mouse clicks, auto-complete, etc.). I settled for using a pop up dialog box. Still, definately worth knowing this exists.
