Hello Raul,

You can assign column editor using ColumnEditorID. Here is an example:

<telerik:GridBoundColumn ColumnEditorID="GridTextBoxColumnEditor1" DataField="ShipName"               HeaderText="ShipName" UniqueName="ShipName">
</telerik:GridBoundColumn>
...
        <telerik:GridTextBoxColumnEditor ID="GridTextBoxColumnEditor1" runat="server">
            <TextBoxStyle Width="100px" />
        </telerik:GridTextBoxColumnEditor>
...

Hi Vlad,

when I try to use your code I put it in <columns> tag but it shows error using class GridTextBoxColumnEditor so what to do to use this class? use any DLL ??? or put in other tag?

Please advise

Hi Raul,

GridTextBoxColumnEditor (and all other column editors) are available as separate controls in the Visual Studio Toolbox - you should use these controls outside of the grid.
