Dynamically changing template of a column to make it editable in Kendo Grid

[Ankush]

Hi,

We are using Kendo Grid control. I have one field which is editable in the grid. Initially, the grid remains in view mode. There is a button outside the grid. Upon clicking the Edit button, I want to make the whole column in edit mode. I want that the whole column should now have textboxes instead of the label. How can I achieve that in Kendo? I am using Kendo Batch editing, but the problem with inline editing mode is, we can only keep one row in edit mode, not all at once.

I found below thread having the same issue as mine but couldn't find the answer.
