This is a custom control that you have to build or purchase. OR, there are
some free ones on the net, just do a search for it

Hi Vadim,

You can start with Andy Smith's free one, including source code:

"ComboBox Control
This is an emulation of the Windows.Forms ComboBox. It is the combination of
a Textbox, with a DropDownList. For browsers with good script and css
support, the control will display as a normal ComboBox. For older browsers
or those with poor script or css support, the control will display as a pair
of controls, one TextBox and one DropDownList. Either way the serverside
progmattic interface will be the same."
