Ah, I see now.  Thanks for the clarification.

Use the grid's client-side CellClick event, which gives you the ID of the cell that was clicked.  As I'd previously suggested for the ClickCellButton event, you can then selectively determine whether or not to take action.

This client-side event applies to the whole grid, not to individual cells.  As a result, you don't wire it up cell-by-cell like you've described with an ASP.NET GridView.  If you establish this event conditionally, you'll need to be able to evaluate that condition in JavaScript.  If the comparison needs to be done on the server, you might consider adding a hidden column whose value you set on the server, and use the value of that column as part of your condition.

Another, slightly different approach would be to put the HTML of an anchor tag as the Value of your cell, in which you call the JavaScript method you want to call.  The difference in behavior is that it would require the user to click specifically on the link, rather than anywhere in the cell.  Extending your example:

e.Row.Cells(Index-1).Value = "<a href='BLOCKED SCRIPTShowDataValue(" + status + ")>Some Text Here</a>"

Vince, actually I am not using the Button type grid column. In this case it is a normal text column and has no special attributes. What I have been trying to do is capture the Cell click event at the client side. My only question now is - Is This Possible. If YES, then can you please share the code for this.

For reference you can see what I have been trying to do in the code snippet that I posted earlier.

Now can you please suggest some workaround which can help me in achieving the same functionality desired as explained above?

Private Sub UWGIndicatorCountryView_InitializeRow(ByVal sender As Object, ByVal e As Infragistics.WebUI.UltraWebGrid.RowEventArgs) Handles UWGIndicatorCountryView.InitializeRow

        For Index As Integer = 1 To Me.UWGIndicatorCountryView.Bands(0).Columns.Count - 1
            If Index Mod 3 = 0 Then
                If Not String.IsNullOrEmpty(e.Row.Cells(Index).Text) Then
                    Dim status As String = e.Row.Cells(Index).Text
                    Dim color As String = GetLegendColor(status)
                    Here's the condition based on which I'm setting the color of the cell and here I want to attach the "onclick" event on this particular cell
                    e.Row.Cells(Index - 1).Style.BackColor = System.Drawing.ColorTranslator.FromHtml(color)
                   Now if I would've been using ASP.Net Gridview then I would've been able to attach "onclick" event to the cell as follows:
                     e.Row.Cells(Index-1).Attributes.Add("onclick","ShowDataValue('" & status & "');")
                     But here I'm using Infragistics WebGrid and it doesn't expose Attributes property for a cell. Now can you please suggest some workaround which can help me in achieving the same functionality desired as explained above?
                End If
            End If
        Next

        If e.Row.Band.Index = 1 Then
            For Index As Integer = 4 To Me.UWGIndicatorCountryView.Bands(1).Columns.Count - 1 Step 3
                If Not String.IsNullOrEmpty(e.Row.Cells(Index).Text) Then
                    Dim status As String = e.Row.Cells(Index).Text
                    Dim color As String = GetLegendColor(status)
                    e.Row.Cells(Index - 1).Style.BackColor = System.Drawing.ColorTranslator.FromHtml(color)
                End If
            Next
        End If
    End Sub
