Can somebody please recommend a good multi-column combobox control for use in a Web Form? I'm quite disappointed to not find any multi-column support on the DevExpress ASPxComboBox control, unless I'm missing something.

A: 

I'm using the telerik RadComboBox control. You can see an online demo of the multi-column functionality here.

Unfortunately, the telerik control suite costs just under three times what I'm making on this project.

Well in that case it's probably not an option. Unless you plan to do more ASP.NET projects in the future.

I have found a sponsor. Damn, the telerik stuff looks good since I last used it, maybe Q1 2008, or earlier.

I've found better luck exploring javascript controls than asp.net controls; especially if 'free' is a requirement. I haven't evaluated this control but it's one built with jQuery: http://code.google.com/p/jquerymulticolumnselectbox/

I'm slowly moving over to the extJS JavaScript framework, but it's too early for me to do an urgent project in.

A: 

We used a control from this article. No longer use it, but it was part of an aspalliance article and came with source code (VB.NET).
