I would like to know if it is possible to have a different column layout for child grids depending on the parent row. 

In our solution, the column layout of the child level would be data driven and generated in code.  Also, all the child levels would be expanded at the outset and the user would not be able to collapse.

Can you let me know whether these things are possible and also point me to any relevent samples or suggest which methods, properties or events would be useful.

Thanks in Advance

Hello,

Indeed this is possible - you can modify the child grid similar to our First Look demo (Loaded event of the child grid). DataContext of the child grid is your parent data item and you can get parent row using ParentRow property of the child grid to set IsExpandable to false. To expand child grids you can use ExpandAllHierarchyItems() - please check this application for more info.
