  Hi Saikiran,
  
  Thank you for writing.
  
  You can change the border color of the text box by setting the ForeColor property of the BorderPrimitive:
  

  public Form1()

  {

      InitializeComponent();

      radTextBox1.Validating += new CancelEventHandler(radTextBox1_Validating);

      radTextBox1.Validated += new EventHandler(radTextBox1_Validated);

  }

   

  void radTextBox1_Validated(object sender, EventArgs e)

  {

      radTextBox1.TextBoxElement.Border.ForeColor = Color.FromArgb(156, 189, 232);  

  }

   

  void radTextBox1_Validating(object sender, CancelEventArgs e)

  {

      radTextBox1.TextBoxElement.Border.ForeColor = Color.Red;

      if (RadMessageBox.Show("Validated", "",  MessageBoxButtons.YesNo) == System.Windows.Forms.DialogResult.No)

      {

          e.Cancel = true;

      }

  }

  
  I hope that you find this information helpful. Should you have any other questions, do not hesitate to contact us.
   
  All the best,
