Answer 1

For hiding you columns ("Row_ID") You can use

dgView.Columns[0].Visible = false;

For setting header text

dgView.Columns[1].HeaderText = "PartNumber";

Answer 2

If you want to use Custom titles etc. First of all create a new datatable, and give the names. Be Careful about typeof()

DataTable dt = new DataTable();

        dt.Columns.Add("Title 1",typeof(int));
        dt.Columns.Add("Title 2", typeof(string));
        dt.Columns.Add("Title 3", typeof(DateTime));
        dt.Columns.Add("Title 4", typeof(bool));
        dt.AcceptChanges();

Get all data which comes from SQL and create object for them in

foreach(var item in yourSqlData)

object[] row = new object[] 
        { 
        item.data1.ToString(), // string columns
        Convert.ToInt32(item.data2), // int columns
        Convert.ToDateTime(item.data3), // datetime column
        Convert.ToBoolean(item.data4) // bool column
        };
        dt.Rows.Add(row);

and bind dt to your gridView
