If you are building a web application , then it is fairly easy .. this
example use a button columns , you will use a textbox one
<asp:datagrid DataKeyField="DiscId" id="DataGrid1" style="Z-INDEX: 110;
LEFT: 8px; POSITION: absolute; TOP: 408px"
runat="server" AutoGenerateColumns="False" CellPadding="8"
BorderWidth="2px" BorderColor="Yellow">
<HeaderStyle ForeColor="White" BackColor="Indigo"></HeaderStyle>
<Columns>
<asp:BoundColumn DataField="DiscId" HeaderText="ID">
<ItemStyle HorizontalAlign="Center" ForeColor="White"
BackColor="Purple"></ItemStyle>
</asp:BoundColumn>
<asp:BoundColumn DataField="FloatDiscNumber" SortExpression="DES"
HeaderText="FloatNumber">
<ItemStyle HorizontalAlign="Center"></ItemStyle>
</asp:BoundColumn>
<asp:BoundColumn DataField="PackDescription" HeaderText="Catagory">
<ItemStyle HorizontalAlign="Center"></ItemStyle>
</asp:BoundColumn>
<asp:BoundColumn DataField="ShipmentName" HeaderText="Issue Date">
<ItemStyle HorizontalAlign="Center"></ItemStyle>
</asp:BoundColumn>
<asp:BoundColumn DataField="LabelText" HeaderText="DVD Content">
<ItemStyle HorizontalAlign="Center"></ItemStyle>
</asp:BoundColumn>
<asp:BoundColumn DataField="Color" HeaderText="Color">
<ItemStyle HorizontalAlign="Center"></ItemStyle>
</asp:BoundColumn>
<asp:BoundColumn DataField="DiscImageFile" HeaderText="Image">
<ItemStyle HorizontalAlign="Center"></ItemStyle>
</asp:BoundColumn>
<asp:ButtonColumn Text="Book" ButtonType="PushButton"
HeaderText="Reserve" CommandName="reserve">
<ItemStyle BackColor="Purple"></ItemStyle>
</asp:ButtonColumn>
<asp:TemplateColumn HeaderText="DVD View">
<ItemStyle BackColor="Purple"></ItemStyle>
<ItemTemplate>
<asp:Button runat="server" Text="Details" CommandName="opencontent"
CausesValidation="false"></asp:Button>
</ItemTemplate>
</asp:TemplateColumn>
</Columns>
</asp:datagrid>
if you are using window, you still can do it with columns style elemnts
