I would not use a MaskEdit cell. Instead, I would handle the CurrentCellValidating event. This event is raised with every keystroke. You can check e.Text (it holds the proposed value after the keystroke has been applied) to see if it is something you want to allow, and if not, set e.Cancel = true to dis-allow the ketstroke.

Hi clay, Yeah the sample works. but my problem is anything between 0.01 and 0.99 is still valid. that is 0.20, 0.33 are valid entries. Any suggestions to resolve the issue? Thanking you purnaram >http://www.syncfusion.com/Support/user/uploads/GC_ValidateString_77c6e8e1.zip >

In the same event, use double.TryParse to get the value from e.Text, and if it is valid value per your requirements, do not set e.Cancel = true.

Try replacing the code in that event with this code.
Dim cc As GridCurrentCell = Me.GridControl1.CurrentCell
If cc.RowIndex = 2 AndAlso cc.ColIndex = 2 Then
     If e.Text.Length > 4 Then
           e.Cancel = True
     Else
           Dim d As Double
           If Double.TryParse(e.Text, Globalization.NumberStyles.Integer _
                Or Globalization.NumberStyles.AllowDecimalPoint, Nothing, d) Then
              If (d > 1 Or d < 0.01) And Not e.Text.EndsWith(".0") Then
                   e.Cancel = True
              End If
          End If
       End If
    End If
