Hi,

Which control are you using? Normally microsoft provided combobox is single column is displayed. In case you are using a third party toolbox hence third party(say Telerik, ComponentArt etc) provided component which displayes multiple column in a combobox, please check the SDK, provided by the same vendor. Nornally they provide all help/example code how to use that control.

If the stand alone SDK( the third party SDK that might be installed in your dev box) and example is not enough, they have their online forum to support it. You should consider posting in their online forum also.

Let me know if it helps you.
