Is it possible for me to create multicolumn combo box using datasourceor something?

In Microsoft Access form, combo box can be binded to the table or query and
can be shown as multi column, getting a actual binded column and showing
columns.

I'm struggling to make a multi-column combo box now but in vain.
The combo box in VC.NET seems not having multi-colmn property. Is it true?
If I can't use combo box as a multi column container, how can I show the
information like

Select your name :
+-----------------------------------------+
| | V |
+-----------------------------------------+
| 1 | Eddie | 80 | B |
+-----------------------------------------+
| 2 | Tom | 90 | A |
+-----------------------------------------+
| 3 | Judy | 95 | A |
+-----------------------------------------+

It is very simple to implement for this in Access.
I know there is some property for the combo box like
DataBindings, DataSource, DisplayMember, Items.
I don't know how to handle this kind of properties before.
Could you possibly teach me how to handle this properties
or where to go to see the information on this.
MSND doesn't show me much information for me.

Thanks.

Hello, I'm curious to know if there is a way to select all tables when using a query in access. I have some (unsuccessful) cascading combo boxes and need a little help maybe working out the query.

I would need it to look something like this, but my...

Hey guys and gals, I'm not sure if this is the simplest way to do this or if someone can throw any other ideas out there. I'm looking to build a treeview inside a listbox...or have a multicolumn treeview.

I am porting something from access to c# and the access project has a multicolumn combo box which c# does not seem to have, I have found a few things with google but either they do not seem to be very good or there is another issue. also I am linking the combobox to a dataset so it would be best if I can find something that works well with a dataset for it's datasource, also if it has autocomplete built in that would be a help thanks
