When editing data in a GridDataControl, only the current row is affected. The Grid WPF team had created a sample for editing multiple rows and setting the values for all the selected rows to be the same as the edited value.

This sample defines a GridDataControl with 3 editable rows and illustrates editing columns with string/integer values and also a bool value displayed with a CheckBox column.

The multi edit functionality is handled in the CurrentCellChanged event.

```
        void dataGrid_CurrentCellChanged(object sender, Syncfusion.Windows.ComponentModel.SyncfusionRoutedEventArgs args)
        {
            RowColumnIndex rci = this.dataGrid.Model.CurrencyManager.CurrentCell.CellRowColumnIndex;
            if (dataGrid.Model.SelectedRanges.Count > 0)
            {
                for (int x = 0; x < dataGrid.Model.SelectedRanges.Count; x++)
                {
                    for (int i = this.dataGrid.Model.SelectedRanges[x].Top; i <= this.dataGrid.Model.SelectedRanges[x].Bottom; i++)
                    {
                       if (i != rci.RowIndex)
                        {
                            if (rci.ColumnIndex == 1)//Enabled Column CheckBox
                            {
                                bool enabled = ((this.dataGrid.Model[rci.RowIndex, 0] as GridDataStyleInfo).CellIdentity.RecordEntry.Data as BusinessObjects).Enabled;
                                ((this.dataGrid.Model[i, 0] as GridDataStyleInfo).CellIdentity.RecordEntry.Data as BusinessObjects).Enabled = enabled;
                            }
                            else if (rci.ColumnIndex == 2)//Name Column Text
                            {
                                string text = ((this.dataGrid.Model[rci.RowIndex, 0] as GridDataStyleInfo).CellIdentity.RecordEntry.Data as BusinessObjects).Name;
                                ((this.dataGrid.Model[i, 0] as GridDataStyleInfo).CellIdentity.RecordEntry.Data as BusinessObjects).Name = text;
                            }
                            else if (rci.ColumnIndex == 3)//Score Column - int
                            {
                                int score = ((this.dataGrid.Model[rci.RowIndex, 0] as GridDataStyleInfo).CellIdentity.RecordEntry.Data as BusinessObjects).Score;
                                ((this.dataGrid.Model[i, 0] as GridDataStyleInfo).CellIdentity.RecordEntry.Data as BusinessObjects).Score = score;
                            }
                        }
                    }
                }
            }
        }
```
