Users can edit cell values if the view’s AllowEditing option is set to true and the DataViewBase.NavigationStyle property is set to GridViewNavigationStyle.Cell.
Use the ColumnBase.AllowEditing property to override the view’s AllowEditing value for individual columns.
Tip
Set the column’s ColumnBase.ReadOnly to true to prevent users from editing column values, but allow users to select and copy cell text.
