Hello Ammar,

You can manually save the layouts to a string and then add them to a file. Then you can separate the layouts and load them. Here is how you can save/load the layout using a string:

string layout;
private void RadMenuItem3_Click(object sender, EventArgs e)
{
    StringBuilder sb = new StringBuilder();
    sb.AppendLine("###Grid");
    using (XmlWriter writer = XmlWriter.Create(sb))
    {

        radGridView1.SaveLayout(writer);

    }
    layout = sb.ToString();

}

private void radMenuItem2_Click(object sender, EventArgs e)
{
    layout = layout.Split(new string[] { "###Grid" }, StringSplitOptions.RemoveEmptyEntries).FirstOrDefault().Trim();
    using (XmlReader reader = XmlReader.Create(new System.IO.StringReader(layout)))
    {
        radGridView1.LoadLayout(reader);
    }
}

I hope this will be useful.
