HOW-TO
Use RadDateInput/RadMaskedTextBox (parts of RadInput 1.x) as editor in GridTemplateColumn of RadGrid

SOLUTION
You should place the date-input/masked textbox instance in EditItemTemplates of GridTemplateColumns. For RadDateInput you should bind the DbSelectedDate property of to a DateTime column of your choice from the grid data source. For RadMaskedTextBox you need to bind the Text property of the control to column in the grid source (restricting the user input through the Mask attribute definition of the RadMaskedTextBox object). 

On update, you can reference the ContainerControl of the GridTemplateColumnEditor instance (which is the table cell holding the date-input/masked textbox editor) to extract the value selected by the user. Then you can update the grid data source with the new entries and refresh the control to reflect the changes.

For additional information you can refer to the code sections below:
