How to reproduce: bind the grid using the code snippet below and enter name in the SearchRow public partial class RadForm1 : Telerik.WinControls.UI.RadForm { public RadForm1() { InitializeComponent(); this.radGridView1.DataSource = this.GetData(); this.radGridView1.AutoSizeColumnsMode = Telerik.WinControls.UI.GridViewAutoSizeColumnsMode.Fill; this.radGridView1.AllowSearchRow = true; this.radGridView1.MasterView.TableSearchRow.InitialSearchResultsTreshold = 0; this.radGridView1.MasterView.TableSearchRow.SearchResultsGroupSize = int.MaxValue;; } private DataTable GetData() { DataTable dt = new DataTable(); dt.Columns.Add("Id", typeof(int)); dt.Columns.Add("Name", typeof(string)); dt.Columns.Add("Date", typeof(DateTime)); dt.Columns.Add("Bool", typeof(bool)); dt.Columns.Add("Description", typeof(string)); for (int i = 0; i < 2000; i++) { for (int j = 0; j < 5; j++) { dt.Rows.Add(i, "Name " + j, DateTime.Now.AddDays(i), i % 2 == 0 , "Description " + i); } } return dt; } } Workaround: in the search row, set the InitialSearchResultsTreshold property to 0 and the SearchResultsGroupSize property to int.MaxValue public RadForm1() { InitializeComponent(); this.radGridView1.DataSource = this.GetData(); this.radGridView1.AutoSizeColumnsMode = Telerik.WinControls.UI.GridViewAutoSizeColumnsMode.Fill; this.radGridView1.AllowSearchRow = true; this.radGridView1.MasterView.TableSearchRow.SearchProgressChanged += TableSearchRow_SearchProgressChanged; this.radGridView1.MasterView.TableSearchRow.InitialSearchResultsTreshold = 0; this.radGridView1.MasterView.TableSearchRow.SearchResultsGroupSize = int.MaxValue; }
