Great! It works for me on SharePoint 2010. Now I migrated my project on SharePoint 2013: there will be a new release for this version? Thanks a lot, Gennaro.

Great lookup function. I do have problems when trying to populate the field through a SharePoint Designer workflow - the value is not inserted. What is the explanation for this?

Great control, it so easy to choose items from huge lists. But unfortunately it doesn't work with Office 365 and i can't find something else. Will you adapt it to Office 365?

very nice, but it would be great if it returned the values as text as opposed to the lookup list ID followed by a Hash then the value, the ability to work in datasheet view woudl also be awesome rather than having it as read only as it is now and having to work on one item at a time. Also, is there anyway it can work with the DIP? thanks

This control is fantastic. There is one one issue. The relations does not seem to survive if you save the site as a template. The copy has all relations if you enter data, but if you enter Lists Settings all relations are linked to Announcements (in my case). This makes it impossible to edit the relation in the copy. If you import data into this filed, make sure to use lookup # mark notation.

Hello, I tried your picker and it's great. Like mpeterson79 I'd like to be able to search on multiple fields. Is there a way to setup that ? Thanks for the great work.

I also posted on your WSS picker page. I was wondering if there is a way to return more than a single field when choosing from the picker. For example: When I select a customer name from the picker, I want it to also return the account number and address. Not just the customer's name.

We have had to resort to a custom field type, as the OOB lookup control simply does not scale to around 32K lookup items. When we try to edit a Lookup field with a larger number of items, we simply get a blank box. We are testing this control and initial impressions are good. Will update more later.
