Hi Reza,

Thank you for posting query to us.

Custom celltype requires a ''model'' class and a ''renderer'' class. The model class handles the serialization requirements for the control and creates the renderer class. The renderer class handles the UI requirements of the cell, such as drawing it, handling mouse actions etc.

You can add a custom CellModel to a GridGroupingControl using "TableModel.CellModels.Add" method. Please refer the sample code below for more details.

this.gridGroupingControl1.TableModel.CellModels.Add("TwoTextBoxCell",new TwoTextBoxCellModel(this.gridGroupingControl1.TableModel));      
this.gridGroupingControl1.TableDescriptor.Columns["Customers"].Appearance.AnyRecordFieldCell.CellType = "TwoTextBoxCell";  

Please let me know if this helps.
