DataGridView DateTime Column type?

Question

Hi experts

In VB.net WinForms (.Net Framework 4.8) DataGridView Add/Edit Column > Column Type has these members:

DataGridViewButtonColumn
DataGridViewCheckBoxColumn
DataGridViewComboBoxColumn
DataGridViewImageColumn
DataGridViewLinkColumn
DataGridViewTextBoxColumn

There's no DataGridViewDateTimeColumn type! So how to set a Column to DateTime to be able to sort at run time by date/time correctly (by clicking on the column header)?

The AI suggested to set the column type to DataGridViewTextBoxColumn and set the DefaultCellStyle.Format = MM-dd-yyyy HH:mm

Is that OK or there are better ways to go with DataGridView?

Thanks everyone :)
