Try iterating thru the DataGridItems in your datagrid and use the DataGridItem.FindControl("idofyourcontrol") method to find your label control.

use the HeaderRow !

I think the solution to access controls inside the headertemplate is:

ctr = grid1.HeaderRow.FindControl("ckbCheckAll");
if (ctr is CheckBox)
{
(ctr as CheckBox).Checked = true;
}

hope this helps,
