Answer 1

You can add control on the OnRowDatabound of your grid, then you can a controls to your row

To add a control to a cell use

void GridView_RowDataBound(object sender, GridViewRowEventArgs e)
{
    GridViewRow row = e.Row as GridViewRow;
    if (row != null)
    {
        MyObject myObject = new MyObject();
        row.Cells[0].Controls.Add(myObject);
    }
}

To add a control to the entire row use

void GridView_RowDataBound(object sender, GridViewRowEventArgs e)
{
    GridViewRow row = e.Row as GridViewRow;
    if (row != null)
    {
        MyObject myObject = new MyObject();
        row.Controls.Add(myObject);
    }
}

Have a look here for the windows forms Grid

You can create your own column class by inheriting the DataGridViewColumn class or any of its derived classes to provide custom appearance, behavior, or hosted controls.
