I am writing code to create a set of user profile properties pro grammatically

I'm getting stuck on ProfilePropertyDefinition.DataType.  This is an int, but I'm having trouble figuring out how the int is related to data type as in TrueFalse, List, etc.

Can anyone help?.

AFAIR the data types are stored in Lists table

Thank you both.

It wasn't exactly obvious, but using ListController methods to add entries was the way to go. I guess I was assuming that these were something separate and would have been controlled by the ProfileController.

Entries added this way are in the Lists table, but do not show up as actual lists in the Host, Lists display.

But it works!
