We have checked Sample Code provided by you (Infragistics team )does not mention about any specific control for multicolumn combo,
http://ko.infragistics.com/community/forums/t/75163.aspx
a) Is there any specific control for Multi Column Combo instead of template use?
b) We are trying to use the solution provided by Infragistics team but we are facing some problems
1. updating the selected value from the combo to multiple column of grid.
Ex. Material No and Material Name display in drop down combo.
When We select Material No then corresponding Material name should be assign to another column of Grid.
Ex. select Material No -"00000001" then "GMCSMATERIAL" should be assign in Next column. (see the attached file for your reference)
2. When a records is selected(click) on dropdown value in multi combo then combo should be fade out(invisible).
3. How can we use function key to open drop combo inside grid.
Ex. If I press F1 then Combo will visible to user.
Hello Vivek,
I have created a sample that demonstrates how you can achieve multi-column dropdown providers for the WebDataGrid. Note as with the other method you are going lose type ahead as this isn’t supported with multi-column as there is no way for the dropdown input to filter/search the WebDataGrid values.
As for your last inquire it sounds like you want cascading combos. You will want to look into the following documentation on how to achieve this behavior:

Hello,
Thank you for your support.
We have checked your sample code.
Now we have changed the Multicolumn combo template(now we are using HTML Table instead of webdatagrid as template).
Currently we are facing following problems:
We want to bind datasource directly to inhance speed. But webdatagrid, we bind directly in grid.
Detail:
In webdropdown I changed DisplayMode="DropDownList" to DisplayMode="DropDown" , so I was able to type in it.
But it does not allow Backspace.
If I use(EnableCustomValues="True" EnableCustomValueSelection="True") then there is any way to
validate the entered value as all required data is available in HTML Table.
I want to create a new datasource and bind it to Multicoumn combo “B”.
For 4th problem see the attached file.
Regards,
Vivek
Thank you for your update. I have done some looking into this matter and have created a sample to demonstrate this behavior. As I mentioned before you are going to want to use an HTML table instead of a WebDataGrid inside the template of the WebDropDown.
Please let me know if you have any further questions concerning this matter.
In continuation of previous queries,we are also developing another sample form.
Form include a webdatagrid, in this webdatagrid, a column contains multicolumndropdown template(using grid).
1.On selecting the item from multicolumn dropdown, we are unable to update the selected values in grid active cell.
2.Multicolumn Dropdown doesn't close on selecting the item.
3.How to set focus in specific cell through javascript.
4.How to disable pager control when grid become dirty.
For more detail, Please see the zip file for your refernce.
Thank you for your Quick responce
We are preparing Two Sample Screen.
First, (Without Grid), Only Multi Column Combo exist.
When User Enter value in Combo then Validation check at Client side (Value should Exist in Multi Column Grid other wise Error Massage shown "Data not Exist)
and Based upon corrct Value, Next Combo will be bind to datasource.
In this sample form I have used Three multicolumn combo(using grid).
1.Section code
2.Line Code
3.Material no
I will also post next query [Sample Screen with grid and Grid itself havemulti column combo]
