You will have to implement it as a Edit plugin. See this article for complete tutorial with examples:

Unfortunately we won't be able to help you building your own Edit plugins. You need to know some PHP/Javascript in order to do so. If you are not familiar with PHP and Javascript you need to hire a developer to do this job for you.

I think PHPRunnder Should give some more examples to batter understand.

Tayyab Ilyas,
we should and we did. If you check a link I have provided you will find a very detailed tutorial that explains how ColorPicker and SignaturePad controls were created and what each line of code means.

Dear Sergey,
Your explanation on custom plugins is pretty comprehensive. I tried a couple of them and they really worked. The problem with this particular plugin being how to load data into the dropdown field from the database. This should ideally work in conjunction with the existing lookup wizard edit control. Any suggestion in this direction will be highly appreciated.

You cannot create an Edit plugin that will work in conjunction with any existing edit control. My best suggestion - hire a programmer who will do this job for you.
