Well, I was getting excited about the new column type feature for the WebListBox just to find out that it does not work when using DataSource. Now I am just a little disappointed.

You need to specify the column type, or the cell type, in the DataSource itself.
For example, if you want to set one of the columns as a CheckBox, you can do it in the ColumnData method:
Var result() As WebListBoxColumnData
Var column As New WebListBoxColumnData("Test", "test", False)
column.ColumnType = WebListBox.CellTypes.CheckBox
result.Add(column)
Return result
If you need to change specific cells, it can be set in the RowData method (See WebListBoxRowData.CellTypeAt)

Initially I just placed the code to change column type in the actual method building the specific list, getting error, hence my question, here it is fyi:
