not directly answering your question (as I see someone already gave some
code for that) but...


  <ROW>
  	<COL0 Type="Dimesion">A</COL0>



  ...


  <xsl:template match="//ROW[not(descendant::node()[1][@Type='Label'])]" >

Never start a match pattern with // (it doesn't do anything useful)


descendant::node()[1]

is the first descendent node which (nature being it is, is the same as)
child::node()[1]
which may be abreviated to
node()[1]

Unless you have xsl:strip-space in effect (or are using msxml which is
arguably non-conformant in this respect) the first child node of ROW is
a text node consisting or a newline and some space characters,
you want the first element child, not the first node, so that would be

match="ROW[not(*[1][@Type='Label'])]"
