You can set the format in the filter in the column as follows:
field: "TaskId", title: "TaskId", width: 80, filterable: { ui: function (element) { element.kendoNumericTextBox({ format: "n0" }); } }
Update This is javascript version. here is my complete defragmentation of the grid:
$("#uxRunningTasksGrid").kendoGrid({ dataSource: runningTasksDataSource, height: $(document).height() - 280, autoBind: true, filterable: true, sortable: true, pageable: false, reorderable: true, resizable: true, columns: [{ command: { text: "Details", click: openDetails }, title: " ", width: 80 }, { field: "TaskId", title: "TaskId", width: 80, filterable: { ui: function (element) { element.kendoNumericTextBox({ format: "n0" }); } } } ] };
