There are a couple of ways to approach this.
First, you can right click your datagrid, choose property builder, in the
window that opens, click on the 'columns' link on the left hand side. This
will open another window which will allow you to allow the addition of all
columns, specific columns, edit/select/cancel buttons, etc..... At the top
of this window there are two listboxes. On the left hand listbox, scroll
down or collapse the first node. expand the next node which is called
'buttons' I think (I'm trying to remember this off the top of my head).
Once expanded, select the edit, select option and pass that to the right
hand lsit box. Click OK.
There is some other code which you need to save your changes, get the cancel
button to work, etc. You can find that information at the following link:

This example is probably one of the easiest ones to follow for a 'newbie'.
Another site which I have refernced before as a good one stop shop to find
articles about datagrids is
www.datagridgirl.com. Another is
www.4guysfromrolla.com. If you are new to web appls it may be a bit tricky
to latch on to at first.
Good Luck
