Custom DataControlField Class - asp.net

Question

I did some search but nothing is really useful in my case.
I want to inherit the DataControlField (System.Web.UI.WebControls) to be able to carry two label controls and then I want to color the two labels to get some sort of conditional formatting, I've got the conditional formatting part but how can I customize this class?
Where in my class should I define the two label controls?
How would I override the CreateField method?
P.S: I know I can accomplish this, in XHTML Markup, but I have so many columns that it would not be appropriate to include those markups in the page markup. Therefore I'm doing that in the CodeBehind page.
EDIT:
public class MyField : DataControlField
{
public MyField()
{
}
protected override DataControlField CreateField()
{
// What to put here?
}
protected override void CopyProperties(DataControlField newField)
{
((CalendarField)newField).DataField = this.DataField;
((CalendarField)newField).DataFormatString = this.DataFormatString;
((CalendarField)newField).ReadOnly = this.ReadOnly;
base.CopyProperties(newField);
}
public override void InitializeCell(DataControlFieldCell cell, DataControlCellType cellType, DataControlRowState rowState, int rowIndex)
{
// Call the base method
base.InitializeCell(cell, cellType, rowState, rowIndex);
// Initialize the contents of the cell quitting if it is a header/footer
if (cellType == DataControlCellType.DataCell)
InitializeDataCell(cell, rowState);
}
protected virtual void InitializeDataCell(DataControlFieldCell cell, DataControlRowState rowState)
{
}
}

See here. Hope this helps you.
public class MyField : DataControlField {
public MyField() { }
protected override DataControlField CreateField() {
// What to put here?
return new MyField();
}
protected override void CopyProperties(DataControlField newField) {
((CalendarField)newField).DataField = this.DataField;
((CalendarField)newField).DataFormatString = this.DataFormatString;
((CalendarField)newField).ReadOnly = this.ReadOnly;
base.CopyProperties(newField);
}
public override void InitializeCell(DataControlFieldCell cell, DataControlCellType cellType, DataControlRowState rowState, int rowIndex)
{
// Call the base method
base.InitializeCell(cell, cellType, rowState, rowIndex);
// Initialize the contents of the cell quitting if it is a header/footer
if (cellType == DataControlCellType.DataCell)
{
cell.DataBinding += new EventHandler(cell_DataBinding);
}
}
void cell_DataBinding(object sender, EventArgs e)
{
Control ctrl = sender as Control;
var container = ctrl.NamingContainer as IDataItemContainer;
// here what you would like to show in MyField
}
}
