Use item data bound event in datalist for such functionality. You can use a label variable or datakey to check the value for the conditional column depending on whether to show that column or not.

C#

void Item_Bound(Object sender, DataListItemEventArgs e)
     {

        if (e.Item.ItemType == ListItemType.Item ||
            e.Item.ItemType == ListItemType.AlternatingItem)
        {
           string strID = DataGrid1.DataKeys[e.Item.ItemIndex].ToString();
           // Retrieve the Panel control in the current DataListItem.
           Panel toBeOrNotToBe = (Label)e.Item.FindControl("myPanel");

           if(strID=="something")
           // make it hidden here; 

        }

     }
