Hi,
    My cells are coming blank when there is no value defined in the database or when they are null.

Hello Rakesh,

I tried to reproduce the mentioned behavior but unfortunately without avail. Please test the attached sample project (with DB) and let me know whether you experience the same issues. The example is based on the code you shared.

Hi,
    There's no problem with the Grid since during export from legacy systems some columns were padded with spaces due to char field. This can be considered closed. But, please try to resolve other two places where I need your help, since without that it will be difficult for me to concinve my company to buy telerik.

Hello RAkesh,

Quick update on the subject:

In order to prevent a missing borders in GridTemplateColumn you can try the following approach:

<telerik:GridTemplateColumn UniqueName="myTemplateColumn">
    <ItemTemplate>
       &nbsp;
       <asp:Label ID="Label1" runat="server"...

Regarding the other questions: Please notice that I answered in one of the mentioned threads.
