DataGrid data type errors

I am trying to reformat all of the cells in a datagridview. Most of the
cells contain text, but some contain datetimes and booleans. Here is
the code I'm using to convert it:

tmpStr = myDataGridView.Rows(r_Count).Cells(c_Count).Value. ToString
myDataGridView.Rows(r_Count).Cells(c_Count) =
New

DataGridViewTextBoxCell

myDataGridView.Rows(r_Count).Cells(c_Count).ValueT ype = GetType(String)
myDataGridView.Rows(r_Count).Cells(c_Count).Value =
extra_strings.addLineBreaks(tmpStr, myMaxColWidth)

I get an exception (I think a date format exception) when the last line
runs.
The addLineBreaks column returns a string. I tried setting the cell's
value type to string, but it is still giving me errors. Anyone have a
sugestion?

thanks in advance.
