[Solved] How to put a cell in readonly

[Juan Camilo zapata]

Hi everyone, i have a question, is that i have a grid and in a column there is a checkbox, in other column there is other type of data, let say an string, the two columns are editable, but i want that when i uncheck the checkbox of some row, the cell that contains strings that is in the same row of the uncheck element, is set to readonly. I am doing this in the method CellEditEnded, i call the column that have the cell that i want to put in readonly, calling the "GridViewCellEditEndedEventArgs e" and if e.Cell.Column.UniqueName == "column of strings", but ofcourse i only got the entire column and a want to refer to a cell.Someone that can give me a answer, thanks

Hello Juan,

The readonly behavior can be defined on each column or the RadGridView itself. You cannot set a specific cell to be readonly out of the box. However you can use BeginningEdit event of RadGridView to implement your custom behavior.

Hi Stefan, thanks for the answer, you can give me an example to see it better, cuz i was doing what you tell me, but the only that i get, is put a entire row in readonly, and that is not what i want. Thanks
