Hi,

Try the following code in Prerender event to limit characters while filtering.
C#:

protected void RadGrid1_PreRender(object sender, EventArgs e)
{
    GridFilteringItem item = (GridFilteringItem)RadGrid1.MasterTableView.GetItems(GridItemType.FilteringItem)[0];
    TextBox txt = (TextBox)item["UniqueName"].Controls[0];
    txt.MaxLength = 2;
}

Thanks,
Princy.
