Product RadGrid for ASP.NET AJAX

Solution

You can use the following approach to achieve this requirement:

<telerik:GridClientSelectColumn UniqueName="SelectColumnName">
    <ItemStyle BackColor="LightCyan" />
</telerik:GridClientSelectColumn>

And if you want to accomplish that for every grid cell, you can set this property on a more global scale:

<telerik:RadGrid ... >
            <ItemStyle BackColor="LightCyan" />
            <AlternatingItemStyle BackColor="LightCyan" />
