In Datagridview's cell value changed event,

C#

if(dataGridView1.Rows[e.RowIndex].Cells["yourcolumn"].Value == "Clear")
{
     dataGridView1.Rows[e.RowIndex].Cells["yourBtnColumn"].ReadOnly = True;
     dataGridView1.Rows[e.RowIndex].Cells["yourBtnColumn"].DefaultCellStyle.BackColor = color.gray;
}
else
{
     dataGridView1.Rows[e.RowIndex].Cells["yourBtnColumn"].ReadOnly = False;
     dataGridView1.Rows[e.RowIndex].Cells["yourBtnColumn"].DefaultCellStyle.BackColor =  dataGridView1.Rows[e.RowIndex].Cells["yourBtnColumn"].OwningColumn.DefaultCellStyle.BackColor;
}

Happy Coding!
:)

This works for Web Application...

Use RowDatabound Event
Here you go

C#

protected void GridView1_RowDataBound(object sender, GridViewRowEventArgs e)
  {
      if (e.Row.RowType == DataControlRowType.DataRow)
      {
          Label lbl1 = (Label)e.Row.FindControl("myLabel");
          Button btn1 = ((Button)e.Row.FindControl("myButton"));
          if(lbl.Value == "")
               btn1.Enabled = false;
          else
               btn1.Enabled= true;
      }
  }

Here "myLabel" and "myButton" are the ID of the controls in gridview

For more info...have a look at this

If you are working on Windows app, then use CellFormatting event of datragridview...
Here is a sample...
