Editable grid in Read only grid

Question

Hello Everyone, 
 I have a requirement of showing an editable grid when clicked on a value in a read only grid. 
 Is it possible to do? 
 Or Is it possible to give a search filter and user filters to a editable grid?

You cannot show data in read-only and also let the user edit it. 
 The name of the grid makes it clear that it is read-only. If you want to let the user edit the data, make a related action for it, or a process model with a UIT that lets the user edit it, or replace the read-only grid with an editable one, setting the readOnly parameter for all inputs to true, until the user clicks on edit.

Divya said: I have to show them in grid only. 
 you will need to show them in a separate section - usually the best approach (just from experience) is to pop up a section or box just below the grid with the entry you've selected for editing.

Oh - that's fairly easy then. Just store the identifier of the row the user clicks from the first grid, and use it when pulling data to show in the second grid. Prior to that first click, just don't show anything where the second grid would be seen.
