Use a template column and add a label to this to hold any data that you wish. Then in the code behind use the findcontrol method and assign the text of the label.
Here is a quick example.
[HTML]<asp:GridView id="GridView1" runat="server">
<Columns>
//whatever you already have +
<asp:TemplateField>
<ItemTemplate>
<asp:Label id="lblDate" runat="server"></asp:Label>
</ItemTemplate>
</asp:TemplateField>[/HTML]

Code Behind:

for(int i=0; i<GridView1.Rows.Count;i++)
{
//create new label with the contents of lblDate
Label labelDate = (Label)GridView1.Rows[i].FindControl("lblDate");
labelDate.Text = DateTime.Now.AddDays(i);
}

You are right I forgot the .ToString().
