PERFECTO!!!! That's what I was looking for. Thank you so much my friend.

Cool.This works fine. But how about ToolbarManager? my Toolbarmanager hast  toolbar1 and toolbar2.

Toolbar1 contains 5 textboxes and toolbar2 has 3 textboxes and 1 dropdown.

I need to set the common appearnce to textboxes and diffrent for dropdown. How do I acheive this. I dont see any generic attribute which can set common appearance of Textboxes or some othe controls. Do I need to make it individual appearnce setting? Can you please help me on this.

Hi,

        private void ultraGrid1_InitializeLayout(object sender, Infragistics.Win.UltraWinGrid.InitializeLayoutEventArgs e)
        {
            UltraGridLayout layout = e.Layout;
            UltraGridBand band = layout.Bands[0];
            UltraGridOverride ov = layout.Override;

            layout.BorderStyle = UIElementBorderStyle.Solid;
            layout.Appearance.BorderColor = Color.Red;
        }

There's no individual property for the borders of the grid control as a whole. The BorderColor I applied here will apply to all borders in the grid. So if you don't want the cell, header, etc. border to pick up the same color, you will need to override those appearances on the sub-objects.So you would probably want to do this:

           
            layout.Override.RowAppearance.BorderColor = Color.Black;
            layout.Override.CellAppearance.BorderColor = Color.Black;
            layout.Override.HeaderAppearance.BorderColor = Color.Black;

How can I set programatically.  My .isl file contains

<style role="GridControlArea"><states><state name="Normal" backColor="245, 250, 250" borderColor="195, 195, 195" backGradientStyle="None" backHatchStyle="None" /></states></style>

But for some reason, I dont want to use isl file. How can I set the same thing with the UltraGrid Control.

I didn't found any ultaGrid.GridControlArea or anything which deals with the scenario.

Can you please help me on this.

My pleasure. :)
