Public PropertyColumnType Gets the string representation of the type-name of this instance. The value is used by RadGrid to determine the type of the columns persisted into the ViewState, when recreating the grid after postback. The value is also used by the grid client-side object. This property is read only. (Inherited from GridColumn)

Public PropertyDisplay Gets or sets a value indicating whether the cells corresponding to a column would be rendered with a 'display:none' style attribute (end-user-not-visible). To completely prevent cells from rendering, set the GridColumn.Visible property to false, instead of the Display property. (Inherited from GridColumn)

Public PropertyEditFormHeaderTextFormat String that formats the HeaderText when the column is displayed in an edit form (Inherited from GridColumn)
Public PropertyFilterImageToolTip (Inherited from GridColumn)
Public PropertyFilterImageUrl Gets or sets a string representing the URL to the image used in the filtering box. (Inherited from GridColumn)

The grouping can be turned on/off for columns like GridBoundColumn using GridColumn.Groupable property.

For more information about the Group-By expressions and their syntax, see GridGroupByExpression class. (Inherited from GridColumn)
