The Code below will hide values of textbox and label controls with the same ID in a gridview, you should be able to modify the code easily enough to support other controls. This does however mean that you have to use TemplateFields not basic BoundFields. For example if you have a Template field and inside it you have a textbox called txtName and a Phone number field called txtPhone, you specify HideDuplicatesInColumns to "txtName,txtPhone" for example:
<cus:GridView2 runat="server" ID="grdTrainMeNonSuperSet" AutoGenerateColumns="false"
HideDuplicatesInColumns="lblExerciseShort,lblMuscleGroup" GridLines="Horizontal"
OnRowCommand="grdTrainMeNonSuperSet_RowCommand">
Before you do this you need to add this class to you appcode folder, and in the your asp.net page add a reference to it.
Example of the Reference
<%@ Register Namespace="ST.Web.Controls" TagPrefix="cus" % >
