DataSet ds = new DataSet();
DataTable emp = new DataTable("Employees");
DataTable div = new DataTable("Division");
emp.Columns.Add("LastName");
emp.Columns.Add("FirstName");
emp.Rows.Add(new Object[] { "Jones", "Marianne" });
emp.Rows.Add(new Object[] { "Fieldes", "Anna" });
div.Columns.Add("Section");
div.Columns.Add("Specialty");
div.Rows.Add(new Object[] { "Finance", "Taxes" });
div.Rows.Add(new Object[] { "Mergers", "Legal" });
ds.Tables.AddRange(new DataTable[] { emp, div });

FarPoint.Win.Spread.CellType.MultiColumnComboBoxCellType mcombo = new FarPoint.Win.Spread.CellType.MultiColumnComboBoxCellType();
mcombo.Editable = true;
mcombo.DataSourceList = ds;
mcombo.AutoSearch = FarPoint.Win.AutoSearch.MultipleCharacter;
fpSpread1.Sheets[0].Cells[1, 1].CellType = mcombo;

VB.NET

Dim ds As New DataSet()
Dim emp As New DataTable("Employees")
Dim div As New DataTable("Division")

div.Rows.Add(New Object() {"Finance", "Taxes"})
div.Rows.Add(New Object() {"Mergers", "Legal"})
ds.Tables.AddRange(New DataTable() {emp, div})

Dim mcombo As New FarPoint.Win.Spread.CellType.MultiColumnComboBoxCellType()
mcombo.Editable = True
