Hi kotu k,
Thank you for writing.
Unfortunately we do not support merging cells at present. What I can offer you as alternative is to remove the borders for specific cells in order to make their visual appearance similar to a merged cells.This can be achieved by subscribing for the ViewCellFormatting event and getting the cell you want to change the borders of, set its BoxBorderStyle to FourBorders and set the Width of the border you want to 0. Please have in mind that if these cells are selected, you will still be able to see their shape.
Another option is to create a template by using GridColumnGrouping. You can see an example of this in our Demo application, which comes with our controls, located in Start Menu >> Programs >> Telerik >> RadControls for WinForms [version] >> VS200[x] >> C# or VB Examples. Lunch the application and navigate to GridView >> Columns >> GridViews, and check the Column Groups View checkBox. This is how a template looks.
Please note that a template will format the whole grid identically to its column grouping. In case you find this option convenient, you can locate its code under GridView >> MultipleViews.
I hope you find this information helpful. Should you need any other assistance, do not hesitate to contact us.
