<asp:GridView ID="gridInboxMessage" runat="server" 
            AutoGenerateColumns="False" 
            DataSourceID="LinqDataSource1">
    <Columns>
        <asp:BoundField DataField="Title" HeaderText="title" ReadOnly="True" SortExpression="Title" />

        <asp:TemplateField HeaderText="Body" SortExpression="Body">

        </asp:TemplateField>

        <asp:TemplateField HeaderText="Sender">

                        Text='<%# DataBinder.Eval(Container.DataItem, "Date1", "{0:MMMM d yyy}")%>'>
                </asp:Label>

</asp:GridView>

Code Behind

protected string TruncateText(object objBody)
{
    string truncated = "";
    if (objBody != null)
    {
        truncated = objBody.ToString().Length > 50 ? 
            objBody.ToString().Substring(0, 47) + "..." : objBody.ToString();
    }
    return truncated;
}

protected string GetSenderNameFromID(object objSenderID)
{
    string senderName = "";
    if (objSenderID != null)
    {
        senderName = CallDatabaseToGetNameFromID();
    }
    return senderName;
}

private string CallDatabaseToGetNameFromID()
{
    //implement your database call to retrieve sender name from id
    throw new NotImplementedException();
}

Hope this helps.

First of all, if you want to show the Name of sender and not ID, you have to modify your query to join in the table that contains the name

For date issue, you can use Format(Date, "dd/mm/yyyy")

Can you ensure that your query actually returns all the characters before binding to the grid?
