And I have successfully created a new data editor with a prevalue setting as well.
Now I would like to allow the user to add several "prevalue" values, exactly the same way that a Dropdown list does. Essentially a list of prevalues that can be easily added or deleted by a developer.
IE.
1) User Create a new datatype: 2) User clicks Save 3) User adds prevalue clicks save 4) User does the same and can now see both values with the "delete" link next to it.
I can't see how this would be set up in the code. I've looked throug the DB and can't work it out there either.
Is that the only config option you need ? Then you can just use a default prevalue provider, take a look at the sourcecode for the dropdown datatype and you'll see how you need to use it
public override interfaces.IDataPrevalue PrevalueEditor { get { if (_prevalueeditor == null) _prevalueeditor = new KeyValuePrevalueEditor(this); return _prevalueeditor; } }
Custom DataType/DataEditor Question
So I've watched the videos at Umbraco TV regarding custom Data Types/Data Editors here:

Any ideas would be excellent!
