No, this is not a cell type, but it's likely a correct cell type in fact. So what's the problem then? What do you expect to have and what do you observe instead?

This is possible if the type of the cell is System.Windows.Forms.DataGridViewTextBoxCell or some appropriate type of your own. Please see:
