Change the cell color

Private Sub RadGridView1_CellFormatting(sender As Object, e As CellFormattingEventArgs) Handles RadGridView1.CellFormatting
 
    Select Case e.CellElement.ColumnInfo.HeaderText
        Case "Receipt Qty"
            Select Case e.CellElement.RowInfo.Cells("QtyMismatch1").Value
                Case 1
                    e.CellElement.DrawFill = True
                    e.CellElement.ForeColor = Color.Red
                    e.CellElement.NumberOfColors = 1
                Case Else
                    e.CellElement.ResetValue(LightVisualElement.DrawFillProperty, ValueResetFlags.Local)
                    e.CellElement.ResetValue(LightVisualElement.ForeColorProperty, ValueResetFlags.Local)
                    e.CellElement.ResetValue(LightVisualElement.NumberOfColorsProperty, ValueResetFlags.Local)
            End Select
    End Select
End Sub

Similar to the above

e.CellElement.DrawFill = True
e.CellElement.GradientStyle = Telerik.WinControls.GradientStyles.Solid
e.CellElement.ForeColor = Color.Maroon

Make a cell Read Only

If e.CellElement.ColumnIndex = 0 Then
    If Not Me.DragAndDropGrid1.CurrentCell Is Nothing Then
        If Me.DragAndDropGrid1.CurrentRow.Cells("TruckPO").Value > "" Then
            e.CellElement.ColumnInfo.[ReadOnly] = True
        Else
            e.CellElement.ColumnInfo.[ReadOnly] = False
        End If
    End If
End If

Disable/Enable a cell

If e.CellElement.ColumnInfo.Name = "cmdFileName" Then
    If e.CellElement.Value = "" Then
        e.CellElement.Enabled = False
    Else
        e.CellElement.Enabled = True
    End If
End If

Another way to hide a cell

Select Case e.CellElement.ColumnInfo.HeaderText.ToUpper
    Case "DELETE"
        If Not e.CellElement.RowInfo.Cells("unitprce").Value Is System.DBNull.Value Then
            e.CellElement.Visibility = ElementVisibility.Collapsed
        End If
End Select
