DataType Grid is basically a DataType that allows you to store DataTypes in a grid-like fashion. Think Excel, but with other Datatypes instead of textboxes.

By default, only datatypes that are verified are enabled and selectable from the prevalue editor.
To enable a non-default datatype, go to {your-umbraco-folder}\config and open the file DataTypeGrid.config.
Add your datatype guid to the <CompatibleDataTypes> section like this:

uComponents<add guid="6c738306-4c17-4d88-b9bd-6546f3771597"/>
Recycle the application pool in IIS or touch the web.config file. You can now use your datatype with DataType Grid.
