Abrupt behaviour of Readonly Property of cells

The problems being faced in Syncfusion Grid Control:
(Syncfusion.Windows.Forms.Grid.GridControl)

If we set the ReadOnly property of either a column or a cell of Grid as True and then reset it as False then it does not work i.e. the ReadOnly property remains True till the time we restructure the grid i.e. reset the rowcount as 0 and repopulate the grid.

The Version of Grid Control is : 4.2.0.37

Hi Mukesh,

You need to set the IgnoreReadOnly property to true, to make changes to the readonly cells. So, you need to first set the IgnoreReadOnly to true and then set the ReadOnly property of the cell to false and again set back the IgnoreReadOnly property to false.

this.gridControl1.IgnoreReadOnly = true;
// make changes to the readonly cells
this.gridControl1.IgnoreReadOnly = false;

Take a look into this KB article for more information on setting properties for ReadOnly cells.

Let me know if you have any other questions.
