Hello,

I've created an Untyped collection ou array of items to assign to a RadGridView. Everything works well on ReadOnly mode! If I set ReadOnly to false and double click the cell, an exception ("Object reference not set to an instance of an object ") if thrown on method GridViewCell.ShowEditor().

If I use System.Windows.Controls.Data.DataGrid it works fine! If I create a typed collection or list and assign to the grid it works fine!

It seams that RadGridView could not assign a CellEditor (at least a default/generic one) when there's no type defined on Collections!

Here is my code:
<UserControl x:Class="SilverlightApplication23.MainPage"
    xmlns="http://schemas.microsoft.com/winfx/2006/xaml/presentation"
    xmlns:x="http://schemas.microsoft.com/winfx/2006/xaml"
    xmlns:telerik="clr-namespace:Telerik.Windows.Controls;assembly=Telerik.Windows.Controls.GridView"
    xmlns:data="clr-namespace:System.Windows.Controls;assembly=System.Windows.Controls.Data"
    Width="400" Height="300">
    <Grid x:Name="LayoutRoot" Background="White">
        <StackPanel>
            <telerik:RadGridView IsReadOnly="False" x:Name="dgEntityTypes" AutoGenerateColumns="False">
                <telerik:RadGridView.Columns>
                    <telerik:GridViewDataColumn HeaderText="Name" DataMemberBinding="{Binding Name}" />
                </telerik:RadGridView.Columns>
            </telerik:RadGridView>
            <data:DataGrid x:Name="dgEntityTypes2" BorderBrush="Transparent" AutoGenerateColumns="False" IsReadOnly="False" CanUserResizeColumns="False">
                <data:DataGrid.Columns>
                    <data:DataGridTextColumn Header="Name" Binding="{Binding Path=Name}"/>
                </data:DataGrid.Columns>
            </data:DataGrid>
        </StackPanel>
    </Grid>
</UserControl>

    public partial class MainPage : UserControl
    {
        public MainPage()
        {
            InitializeComponent();

            ObservableCollection<Object> mycol = new ObservableCollection<Object>();
            Test t1 = new Test();
            t1.Name = "aaa";
            t1.Id = "111";

            Test t2 = new Test();
            t2.Name = "aaa";
            t2.Id = "111";
            mycol.Add(t1);
            mycol.Add(t2);

            dgEntityTypes.ItemsSource = mycol;
            dgEntityTypes2.ItemsSource = mycol;
        }
    }
    public class Test
    {
        public string Name { set; get; }
        public string Id { set; get; }
    }

Is there any work-arround for this issue? This is a problem with a huge impact on our application because it's used a lot.

Thanks in advance!!

Rogério
