Hi Jon,

You can try out the following code snippet to access textBox in edit mode and set its properties.

CS:

protected void RadGrid1_ItemDataBound(object sender, GridItemEventArgs e)
    {
        if ((e.Item is GridEditableItem) && (e.Item.IsInEditMode))
        {
            GridEditableItem edititem = (GridEditableItem)e.Item;
            TextBox txtbx = (TextBox)edititem["FirstName"].Controls[0];
            txtbx.Width = Unit.Pixel(100);
            txtbx.TextMode = TextBoxMode.MultiLine;
        }
    }

Thanks
Shinu.
