In a data grid, How can I lock some columns so they can not be edited and others can.

I need to display the Employee ID and Name (fixed - read only) and then other columns that can be edited

If you create computed columns, such as Template columns to replicate those basic columns, then they should be uneditable if you display the template column instead of the basic column.
