DataGridViewComboBoxColumn ограничивает ввод значениями в источнике данных. У меня была такая же проблема. Я пытался установить значение поля вне DGV. Я связывал DGV с таблицей данных. Если я установлю для DataRow ["somefield"] значение, отсутствующее в DataSource, я получу полученную вами ошибку.
В итоге я создал потомка DataGridViewColumn, который поддерживает редактор ComboBox и допускает значения, отсутствующие в DataSource.
Я могу опубликовать код, если вы хотите его увидеть.

Вот пример использования
var dc = new DropTextBoxColumn();
dc.Name = "FieldName";
dc.DataPropertyName = "FieldName";
dc.DropDownStyle = ComboBoxStyle.DropDownList;
var items = dc.Items = new string[]{ "one", "two", "three" };
items.Insert(0, "<None>");
dc.Items = items;
DirectGrid.Columns.Insert(1,dc);
