How to set EditFormColumnIndex for autogeneratedcolumns in radgrid. radgrid doesn't have any static headers by default.
I am using:

 protected void rgControl_PreRender(object sender, EventArgs e)
    {
                int j = 0, k = 1;
                foreach (GridColumn gc in rgControl.MasterTableView.AutoGeneratedColumns)
                {
                    if (j < k * 7)
                    {
                        gc.EditFormColumnIndex = k - 1;
                    }
                    else
                    {
                        k++;
                        gc.EditFormColumnIndex = k - 1;
                    }
                    j++;
                }
}
It works good but when i am edit a record it shows the following error: Sys.WebForms.PageRequestManagerServerErrorException: Editor cannot be initialized for column:5.

Hi,

 You should also set the ColumnNumber property of the of the EditFormSettings in the MasterTableView. It specifies how many groups of columns you will have in the autogenerated edit form, the default is 1 and you have to set bigger value if you need to set different EditFormIndexes.
Below is a sample code to illustrate this approach:

<telerik:RadGrid runat="server" ID="RadGrid1" AutoGenerateColumns="true"
            AutoGenerateEditColumn="true">
            <MasterTableView>
                <EditFormSettings ColumnNumber="2" />
            </MasterTableView>
        </telerik:RadGrid>
protected override void OnInit(EventArgs e)
    {
        base.OnInit(e);
        RadGrid1.NeedDataSource += new GridNeedDataSourceEventHandler(RadGrid1_NeedDataSource);
        RadGrid1.ColumnCreated += new GridColumnCreatedEventHandler(RadGrid1_ColumnCreated);
    }
 
    void RadGrid1_ColumnCreated(object sender, GridColumnCreatedEventArgs e)
    {
        if (e.Column.UniqueName == "Name" || e.Column.UniqueName == "Age")
        {
            e.Column.EditFormColumnIndex = 1;
        }
    }
 
    void RadGrid1_NeedDataSource(object sender, GridNeedDataSourceEventArgs e)
    {
        DataTable t = new DataTable();
        t.Columns.Add("Name");
        t.Columns.Add("Age", typeof(int));
        t.Columns.Add("Note");
        t.Columns.Add("Test");
 
        for (int i = 0; i < 8; i++)
        {
            var r = t.NewRow();
            r["Name"] = "Name" + i;
            r["Age"] = i;
            r["Note"] = "Note" + i;
            r["Test"] = "Test" + i;
            t.Rows.Add(r);
        }
 
        RadGrid1.DataSource = t;
    }

Kind regards,
