I have created this gridview by using DataGridViewCheckBoxColumn. as follows

dtItem = bc.FetchDataTable_ToBindLineItemCheckListBox();
dtItemType = bc.FetchDataTable_ToBindCustomerGridviewLeftColumn();
//dgvItemwiseType is gridview
dgvItemwiseType.Columns.Add("Item", "Item/Type);
for (int i = 0, j = 1; i < dtItemType.Rows.Count; i++, j++)
{
      checkboxcolumn = new DataGridViewCheckBoxColumn();
      checkboxcolumn.Name = dtItemType.Rows[0]["TypeName"].ToString();
      checkboxcolumn.HeaderText = dtItemType.Rows[i]["TypeName"].ToString();
      checkboxcolumn.FalseValue = 0;
      checkboxcolumn.TrueValue = dtItemType.Rows[i]["TypeName"].ToString();

      dgvItemwiseType.Columns.Insert(j, checkboxcolumn);
}
for (int i = 0, j = 1; i < dtCustomer.Rows.Count; i++, j++)
{
      dgvItemwiseType.Rows.Add(dtItem.Rows[i]["ItemName"].ToString());
}

But problem is that I dont know how to access these checkboxes of DataGridviewCheckboxcolumn to save and update in database.
I want to create two Functionalities:
1. I want to select all checkboxes from that DataGridViewCheckBoxColumn. on header click of that DataGridviewCheckboxcolumn.
2. I want to display text of that item type value on mouseover event on checkbox from that DataGridviewCheckboxColumn.

There are several ways to do it, among which below is the simplest one
1. Add boolean type of column in your datatable that will add checkbox to your datagrid
var dt = new DataTable ();
dt.Columns.Add ("checkbox1", typeof (bool));
dt.Columns.Add ("checkbox2", typeof (bool));
// bind dt with your datagridview
