Hello Amit,

You can set the size of Autogenerated column from code behind.
C#:

protected void RadGrid1_PreRender(object sender, EventArgs e)
   {
       RadGrid1.MasterTableView.AutoGeneratedColumns[0].ItemStyle.Width = Unit.Pixel(300); //setting size of first AutoGeneratedColumn
   }

And set the PageSize property on the grid or table view to specify the number of records that should appear in each chunk.
ASPX:

<telerik:RadGrid ID="RadGrid1"  runat="server" AllowPaging="true" PageSize="10">

Thanks,
Princy.

Hi Amit,

You can set column widths by using the ColumnCreated event and the columns' HeaderSyle-Width property.

http://www.telerik.com/help/aspnet-ajax/grdusingcolumns.html

You can control the RadGrid height with its Height and ScrollHeight (only when scrolling is used) properties.

If the control is currently displaying e.g. 5 rows, you can't have 5 "filled" rows and 5 "empty" rows.
