You can handle the event that happens when an editor is about to be shown in a non-focused mode CustomRowCellEdit.

private

```
void gridView_CustomRowCellEdit(object sender,
CustomRowCellEditEventArgs e){    if (e.Column !=columnWithButtonEdits) {        BusinessObjectobj = (BusinessObject) gridView.GetRow(e.RowHandle);       
e.RepositoryItem.Buttons[0].Text = obj.SomeProperty;                    }}
```

Of course you have to cast RepositoryItem to your type and get the button that you need.
