I am creating dynamic column the following way:

                Dim TotalColumn As New GridNumericColumn()
                grdContingentDevelopment.MasterTableView.Columns.Add(TotalColumn)
                TotalColumn.DataField = "Total"
                TotalColumn.HeaderText = "Total"
                TotalColumn.SortExpression = "Total"
                TotalColumn.HeaderStyle.HorizontalAlign = HorizontalAlign.Left
                TotalColumn.ItemStyle.HorizontalAlign = HorizontalAlign.Left               
                TotalColumn.DataFormatString = "{0:N2}"
                TotalColumn.HeaderStyle.Width = 90
                TotalColumn.ItemStyle.Width = 90
                TotalColumn.ItemStyle.Font.Bold = True

That works fine, however if i add: TotalColumn.ReadOnly = True, most of formats such as DataFormatString or HorizontalAlign stop working

Any ideas?

Hi David,

Please create the grid structure during Page_Init event handler and add the properties before the grdContingentDevelopment.MasterTableView.Columns.Add(TotalColumn) line:
http://docs.telerik.com/devtools/aspnet-ajax/controls/grid/defining-structure/creating-a-radgrid-programmatically#creating-a-radgrid-on-page_init

I hope this will prove helpful.

Eyup,

  Unfortunately it made no difference

  Can you please send me working example with ReadOnly setup as "true"?

Hello David,

I am sending a sample RadGrid web site with programmatic creation. Please run the attached web site sample and verify that the properties of the numeric column are properly working even with ReadOnly set to true.

Hi Eyup,

    Thank you for example, unfortunately i didn't provide you enough details to create the most suitable code. In this particular case i implemented "paste from excel" ability, because of that i had to keep all records in "edit" state. I attached picture and code.

 

    <telerik:RadGrid ID="grdContingentDevelopment" runat="server"
                            AllowMultiRowEdit="true"  AllowAutomaticUpdates="true"
                            OnItemUpdated="grdContingentDevelopment_ItemUpdated"
                            OnUpdateCommand="grdContingentDevelopment_UpdateCommand"

Hello David,

First, let me start by saying that mixing declarative with programmatically created columns is not supported scenario and you will have to create the entire columns structure in the code-behind.

Furthermore, could you please elaborate which version of the controls you are using, because setting the DataFormatString on ReadOnly column displays the formatted values correctly with our latest versions.
