Hello Ambica,

You can check out the following code to hide the CancelButton while inserting an item as shown below:
cs:

 protected void RadGrid1_ItemDataBound(object sender, GridItemEventArgs e)
    {
        if (e.Item is GridEditFormInsertItem && e.Item.OwnerTableView.IsItemInserted)
        {
            GridEditFormInsertItem item = (GridEditFormInsertItem)e.Item;
            LinkButton lnkbtn = (LinkButton)item.FindControl("CancelButton");
            lnkbtn.Visible = false;
        }
    }

Thanks
Princy.

Hello Ambica,

The code provided by Princy applies when your edit form buttons are of type LinkButton (default). If you used ImageButton (like shown below) you should change the type in her code.

<MasterTableView CommandItemDisplay="TopAndBottom" EditMode="PopUp">
    <EditFormSettings>
        <EditColumn ButtonType="ImageButton" CancelImageUrl="Cancel.gif">
        </EditColumn>
    </EditFormSettings>
</MasterTableView>

This would be the code for PushButton:

if (e.Item is GridEditFormInsertItem && e.Item.OwnerTableView.IsItemInserted)
{
    GridEditFormInsertItem editItem = e.Item as GridEditFormInsertItem;
    Button pushButton = editItem.FindControl("CancelButton") as Button;
    if (pushButton != null) pushButton.Visible = false;
}

I believe the better approach is to use safe cast and put a simple check to be sure that you get the right control.
