Assuming the label is the first cell in the DataGrid. If not, you’ll need to change the number in Cells[0].

  void R1_ItemDataBound(Object sender, DataGridItemEventArgs e)
  {

      if (e.Item.ItemType == ListItemType.Item || 
          e.Item.ItemType == ListItemType.AlternatingItem) 
         {

             if(e.Item.Cells[0].Text.Length <= 40){
                 e.Item.Cells[0].Text = String.Empty;
             }
         }
  }
