DatagridView ComboBox Column As Integer

Hello
I have a bound DataGridView with an integer column called TenantShare.  I can add data to it without any problmes if I leave the column as a textbox.  I want the column to be a combobox so I changed the ColumnType property to DataGridViewComboBoxColumn and gave the combobox sme values (0, 50, 100).

When I run the form and try to add data, I get an error saying Value Not Valid.  I think this is because the items I added to the combobox are being stored as strings - but I don't know how to add them as Integers

Thanks, Simon

How do you bind the values to the DataGridViewComboBoxColumn?  You should be able to bind to a list of integers, but I am not sure that it will help you with the other parts of the DataGridView...

To bind values you do this (Visiual Studio 2010):

Click on DataGridViewTasks
Edit Columns
Choose the column you want and chnage the ColumnType to ComboBox

How can I bind a list of integers?

Thanks.
