                    >                 
                    <telerikNavigation:RadContextMenu.ContextMenu>
                        <telerikNavigation:RadContextMenu                           
                            >
                            <telerikNavigation:RadMenuItem Header="Add"/>                        <telerikNavigation:RadMenuItem IsSeparator="True"/>                        
                            <telerikNavigation:RadMenuItem Header="Delete"/>  
                        </telerikNavigation:RadContextMenu>

    Hello Kiran,

    RadContextMenu is attached on the RadGridView so you could use the static methods on RadContextMenu:
    GetContextMenu(radGridView) and SetContextMenu(gridView, contextMenu) from codebehind.

    Let us know if you need more information.

    Thanks for that info . It helped me. I need one more help

    MyGrid.FilterDescriptors.ItemChanged += new System.EventHandler<    Telerik.Windows.Data.ItemChangedEventArgs<Telerik.Windows.Data.IFilterDescriptor>>(FilterDescriptors_ItemChanged);

    void FilterDescriptors_ItemChanged(object sender, Telerik.Windows.Data.ItemChangedEventArgs<Telerik.Windows.Data.IFilterDescriptor> e)

    {

    }



    How can i access the context menu form the sender in FilterDescriptors_ItemChanged .
    Why i am asking is i am doing MVVM so i will be writing attached property to hook this event and inside that i need to access the contextmenu and from that context menu the grid attached to it.
