Hello Shemein,

For setting custom column editors to auto-generated column you can handle the server-side OnCreateColumnEditor event and replace the column editor with your custom one.

Detailed information and an example are available in the following help article:

• Custom Editors Extending Auto-Generated Editors

Hope this helps.
