Hello Ranganath,

Try accessing the controls in the FormTemplate of the RadGrid as shown below.

CS:

  protected void RadGrid2_ItemDataBound(object sender, GridItemEventArgs e)
    {

        if( (e.Item is GridEditableItem )&&(e.Item.IsInEditMode))
        {
            GridEditableItem formItem = (GridEditableItem)e.Item;
            TextBox txtRegionID = (TextBox)formItem.FindControl("txtRegionID");
            CheckBox CheckBox1 = (CheckBox)formItem.FindControl("CheckBox1");
        }
    }

Thanks
Princy.
