Controls that show in datasheet?

I've found that the radio button, checkbox, and combo box controls work
in the datasheet view of a form, and it seems that this is because they
have a label "linked" with them, so that the datasheet can use the
label as a column header.

I was wondering if there were any other controls like this?

Is there a way I can "link" a label to other control in the same way
that textboxes, checkboxes, comboboxes, and radio buttons are created
with a label already linked to them?

Oh and it seems the Togglebutton gets a column also, but it oddly
doesn't actually show the toggle button, but instead the column can
have text entered into it?
Odd.

Anyone know how to get the togglebutton to look like a button in
datasheet view?

You can also use a continues form (which I prefer over a datasheet). If you
use a continues form, then you don't even need labels (I don't think you
need labels for a datasheet either.

Here is some screen shots that give you some ideas
