Hello,

This behavior was first reported more than 10 years ago, and we haven’t seen significant demand or follow-up from the community since then. As a result, we currently plan to prioritize improvements with broader impact and greater demand. Also, in past releases, we have added UI Automation Support for the RadGridView. We are also in the process of implementing UI Automation Support across all our Telerik UI for WinForms controls. The UI Automation Support general article lists the currently supported controls.

I marked this thread as "Declined". If this limitation is still affecting your scenario, please share additional context or use cases. 

Thank you for taking the time to share your feedback!

Regards,
Dinko | Tech Support Engineer

I understand that this is not a priority for Telerik but I fail to understand how the controls were marked MSAA compliant

also noticed that sometimes no values are read at all.

This also occurs when you go from an on screen cell to an off screen cell, most likely due to accessibility is using the currentcell value, which shows as dbnull when a cell is offscreen
