Hi Amit,

You can simply set the Selected property for the data items to true rather than accessing the checkboxes for the GridClientSelectColumn and then setting it checked:

c#:

protected void RadGrid1_ItemDataBound(object sender, GridItemEventArgs e)
    {
        if (e.Item is GridDataItem)
        {
            GridDataItem dataItem = (GridDataItem)e.Item;
            dataItem.Selected = true;
        }
    }
