With Telerik RadGrid, when you hit the Add New Record and the editable form comes up, the first textbox or dropdown is not selected focused by default. This code will do this. Attaches to Behavior: ItemDataBound

protected void RadGridServiceTypes_ItemDataBound(object sender, Telerik.Web.UI.GridItemEventArgs e)
{
		if (e.Item is Telerik.Web.UI.GridEditableItem && e.Item.IsInEditMode)
		{
			Telerik.Web.UI.GridEditableItem form = (Telerik.Web.UI.GridEditableItem)e.Item;
			TextBox comboBox = (TextBox)form["ServiceName"].Controls[1];
			comboBox.Focus();
		}
}
