Answer 1

Simply add template field in your gridview

<asp:TemplateField>
                <ItemTemplate>
                    <asp:ImageButton ID="ibtnRateIt" CommandArgument='<%# Eval("id") %>' CommandName="RateIt"
                        runat="server" ImageUrl="~/Images/RateIt.gif" />

                </ItemTemplate>
            </asp:TemplateField>

Answer 2

<asp:TemplateColumn>
    <ItemTemplate>
        <asp:Button Runat="server" ID="makeSomehtingButton"
CommandName="makeSomething" 
CommandArgument='<%# DataBinder.Eval(Container.DataItem,"ID") %>'>
</asp:Button>
    </ItemTemplate>
