This will not work. Block rewriting does not apply to parent classes.

Yes, the solution suggested by fab is better. But this example will work because you directly rewrite Mage_Adminhtml_Block_Widget_Grid, call its __construct (in which template will be set the first time) and then set your template.

You seem to misunderstand how class rewrites work in Magento. createBlock('group/name') uses the config object, but that will autoload only the rewritten class definition, which then specifies the parent class by name. The autoloader - which is solely responsible when it comes to loading the parent class - does not in any way evaluate class rewrites from configuration XML. Do a simple test with a subclass of Mage_Adminhtml_Block_Widget_Grid and you will see what I mean.

yes, I know how it works and it was my mistake. sales order grid needed to be rewriten in this question directly. I changed my answer.

@freento Instead of edit core file what is the best alternate like do changes app/design/frontend/default/theme instead of app/design/frontend/default/default
