Ok. This is driving me nuts, because I'm missing what's causing this to happen. I am creating RadGrid columns programmatically, using one grid (aspx page) for 7 different datasources, controlled by a Case statement. My problem is that if I click either on the Edit button( GridEditCommandColumn) or on the Delete button (GridButtonColumn), the Delete button disappears on postback. All other columns(GridBoundColumn) reappear just fine. Here is the snippet of code. It appears in a Page Load event. The DataSourceID is supplied with a NeedDataSource event which is why it is commented out in the snippet. What am I missing? Thanks in advance.

If Not IsPostBack Then

Dim intReport As Integer = Request("Report")

Select intReport

Case 0

' Comments

'rgDisplay.DataSourceID = "CommentsDS"

rgDisplay.MasterTableView.DataKeyNames = New String() {"CMT_REC_ID"}

rgDisplay.Width = Unit.Percentage(90)

rgDisplay.PageSize = 5

rgDisplay.AllowPaging = True

rgDisplay.PagerStyle.Mode = GridPagerMode.NextPrevAndNumeric

rgDisplay.AutoGenerateColumns = False

rgDisplay.Skin = "Hay"

rgDisplay.MasterTableView.PageSize = 20

rgDisplay.MasterTableView.Width = Unit.Percentage(100)

rgDisplay.MasterTableView.EditMode = GridEditMode.InPlace

Dim colEdit As GridEditCommandColumn

colEdit = New GridEditCommandColumn

colEdit.UniqueName = "EditCommandColumn"

colEdit.ItemStyle.Width = Unit.Pixel(25)

rgDisplay.MasterTableView.Columns.Add(colEdit)

Dim colDel As GridButtonColumn

colDel = New GridButtonColumn

colDel.Visible = True

colDel.CommandName = "Delete"

colDel.UniqueName = "cmdDelete"

colDel.Text = "Delete"

colDel.ItemStyle.Width = Unit.Pixel(25)

rgDisplay.MasterTableView.Columns.Add(colDel)

Dim colBound As GridBoundColumn

colBound = New GridBoundColumn

rgDisplay.MasterTableView.Columns.Add(colBound)

colBound.DataField = "CMT_REC_ID"

colBound.HeaderText = "Number"

colBound.UniqueName = "CMTRecID"

colBound = New GridBoundColumn

rgDisplay.MasterTableView.Columns.Add(colBound)

colBound.DataField = "CMT_DESCRIPTION"

colBound.HeaderText = "Description"

colBound.UniqueName = "CMTDescription"

GridButton Column disappears
