Hi Syed,

Try the following code snippet for assigning a default value and to disable the textbox when either in editmode or in insert mode.

CS:

protected void RadGrid1_ItemDataBound(object sender, GridItemEventArgs e)
{
    if (e.Item is GridEditableItem && e.Item.IsInEditMode)
    {
        GridEditableItem insertedItem = (GridEditableItem)e.Item;
        TextBox textbox = (TextBox)insertedItem["CategoryID"].Controls[0];
        textbox.Text = "Custom Text";
        textbox.Enabled = false;
    }
}

Thanks,
Shinu.

Sorry, i could not able to explain my question properly here. 

I have a normal ASP.NET textbox control displaying on the page which contains certain value, everytime whenever a new row is inserted in the RadGrid, this normal textbox value will be added to this particular column of the grid.  And also i want RadGrid which iam adding the value should be invisible.

As the below, i need in this type:

insertedItem["CategoryID"].Controls[0]=textbox1.text 

 

I guess my question is still confusing.

Thanks.
