If you are using vb.net you can make use of .Format field to set the $ in the output.
for doing that you need to do the following.

VB

Dim col1 As New DataGridTextBoxColumn
    With col1
        .MappingName = "<fieldname>"
        .HeaderText = "<header>"
        .Width = <value>
        .Alignment = HorizontalAlignment.Center
        .NullText = ""
        .TextBox.Enabled = True
        .Format = "$00,00"
    End With
</value></header></fieldname>

Hope this might help.
