Yeah this is easy. 

first set (AutoGenerateColumns="false")
then build your columns yourself

                <PagerStyle Mode="NextPrevAndNumeric" />
                <MasterTableView TableLayout="Auto" DataKeyNames="ID">
                    <RowIndicatorColumn>
                        <HeaderStyle Width="15px" />
                    </RowIndicatorColumn>
                    <ExpandCollapseColumn>
                        <HeaderStyle Width="15px" />
                    </ExpandCollapseColumn>
                    <Columns>
                    <telerik:GridEditCommandColumn datafield="id" HeaderText="Edit" UniqueName="Edit" Visible="true" />
                        <telerik:GridBoundColumn DataField="Title" HeaderText="Page Title" UniqueName="Title" Visible="true" />
                        <telerik:GridBoundColumn DataField="MenuName" HeaderText="Menu Name" UniqueName="MenuName" Visible="true" />
                        <telerik:GridTemplateColumn DataField="DateCreated" HeaderText="Date Created" UniqueName="DateCreatedDisplay">
                            <ItemTemplate>
                                <asp:Label ID="lblDateCreated" runat="server" Text='<%# FormatDate(DataBinder.Eval(Container.DataItem, "DateCreated")) %>' />
                            </ItemTemplate>
                        </telerik:GridTemplateColumn>
                    </Columns>
                </MasterTableView>

as an example.

Hello Saad,

You can swap the columns using their UniqueName properties in the PreRender event of the grid as shown below:
cs:

  protected void RadGrid1_PreRender(object sender, EventArgs e)
    {
        RadGrid1.MasterTableView.SwapColumns("NumericColumn", "TextColumn");
    }

You can also go through this link which explains about reordering columns.

Thanks
Princy.
