You can assign editors to columns via the TreeListColumn.ColumnEdit property. In such a case, each column cell will use the specified editor. On the other hand, you can specify an editor for each individual cell by handling the TreeList.CustomNodeCellEdit event.

By default you can modify each cell value within the TreeList control. The following ways are available to prohibit cell value modification:
