Hello Vinod,

You can try out the following code to set the MinDate property of the GridDateTimeColumn.
cs:

 protected void RadGrid2_ItemDataBound(object sender, GridItemEventArgs e)
    {
        if (e.Item is GridEditableItem && e.Item.IsInEditMode)
        {
            GridEditableItem dataItem = (GridEditableItem)e.Item;
            RadDatePicker datePicker = (RadDatePicker)dataItem["date"].Controls[0];
            datePicker.MinDate = DateTime.Today;
        }
    }

Thanks
Princy.

Thanks Princy,
for Quick Replay,

i am created Grid Dynamically & adding GridDateTimeColumn 
dynamically using following code....



GridDateTimeColumn boundColumn = new GridDateTimeColumn();
boundColumn.HeaderText = strColumnName;
boundColumn.DataField = Item.Value;
boundColumn.UniqueName = strColumnName;
boundColumn.DataFormatString = "{0:d}";
RadGridRow.MasterTableView.Columns.Add(boundColumn);

as per Your mail    

RadDatePicker datePicker = (RadDatePicker)dataItem["date"].Controls[0];
 i am able give mindate property.
but if  i want to applay this property to all GridDateTimeColumn in the radgrid Without specifying Column dataitems name ( "date").
means for each GridDateTimeColumn in Radgrid...

Hi Vinod,

Try the following code snippet to achieve the desired scenario.

CS:

  protected void RadGrid1_PreRender(object sender, EventArgs e)
    {

        foreach (GridColumn col in RadGrid1.MasterTableView.RenderColumns)
        {
            if (col.ColumnType == "GridDateTimeColumn")
            {
                GridDateTimeColumn datcol = (GridDateTimeColumn)col;
                foreach (GridDataItem item in RadGrid1.MasterTableView.Items)
                {
                    if ((item is GridEditableItem) && (item.IsInEditMode))
                    {
                        GridEditableItem edititm = (GridEditableItem)item;
                        RadDatePicker dtpkr = (RadDatePicker)edititm[datcol.UniqueName].Controls[0];
                       dtpkr.MinDate = DateTime.Today;
                    }
                }
            }
        }
    }

Thanks
Shinu.
