    Hi, 

    You can use a TemplateColumn with a TextBlock in the ItemTemplate and a DatePicker in the editor template. 

    Then you can setup your editing options like so:

    <ig:XamWebGrid.EditingSettings>

                    <ig:EditingSettings AllowEditing="Cell" IsMouseActionEditingEnabled="SingleClick"/>

                </ig:XamWebGrid.EditingSettings>

    You can provide a ValueConverter to the DateColumn to convert the string data into a DateTime value.

     <igGrid:DateColumn Key="PropA" ValueConverter="{StaticResource myStringToDateTimeConverter}" />
