Hi Deekshith,

You can use the PreRender event of the RadGrid to set the column width of a RadGrid.

C#:

protected void RadGrid1_PreRender(object sender, EventArgs e)
{
  RadGrid1.MasterTableView.GetColumn("ColumnUniqueName").HeaderStyle.Width = Unit.Pixel(100);
}

Thanks,
Princy

Hi Deekshith,

You can set the Width of the column in aspx as follows:

ASPX:

<telerik:GridBoundColumn UniqueName="ID" DataField="ID" HeaderText="ID">
    <HeaderStyle Width="200px" />
</telerik:GridBoundColumn>

Thanks,
Princy

In my case the grid has to populate the columns in the conditional basis .  In some cases it will be total of 5 columns and in the other case it will be columns of the total 15columns . Is there any way to set the widhth of all the grid columns to say 100px from the server side code for example say pre-render method.

Hello Sabitha,

The PreRender event handler is raised a bit late, therefore, you can use the Load or ColumnCreated events if you are using AutogeneratedColumns. In addition, you can check the following approach:

Hope this helps.
