you can't once a column is set invisible, it is.

What you can do is have the column set to visible, but have the text color
match the background color of the row. That way the data isn't showing, and
you will be able to access that data from the cell.

You should be able to set it to visible in the code behind, read the value
and then hide it again.

Or alternatively, don't use hidden columns. Put the field name into the
datakey collection.
