 datagridview control is not a web control

You can use gridview instead

You can show all controls if you click right mouse button on Toolbox, then on context menu select "Show All" option.

 Then you can see Windows controls under "All Windows Controls" tab. However, you can't just drag and drop Windows control from toolbox to web form.

The Data Controls are different for Windows and Web Applications.
