Custom Property Type?

[MotoMan_Yz400]

Not sure what this is called, but I saw it once, and need to do it again.

It's like a Boolean, you have a select list of options to choose from (in booleans case, it's only True or False) How do I create my own?

Like:
Dim k as CustomStatus
k = Stopped

Where CustomStatus can be set to one of the following only:
Stopped
Running
Waiting
Paused

Even if I knew what this is called I can research it, but I never used it before.

This is called enumeration.

Private Enum CustomStatus
   Stopped = 0
   Running = 1
   Waiting = 2
   Paused =3
End Enum

Enumeration is what you're looking for. The Keyword in VB is "Enum"

Public Enum myType As Integer
   ItemOne = 1
  ItemTwo
ItemThree

If you don't specify a value, the next number in the sequence will be used. If you don't specify a starting value, 0 gets used...

Public Enum myType As Integer
   ItemOne
  ItemTwo
ItemThree

Also the numbers don't need to be in order, but then you have to specify each value

Public Enum myType As Integer
   ItemOne = 10
  ItemTwo = 5
ItemThree = 200

You are thinking of an Enum:

Public Enum CustomStatus
 Stopped
 Running
 Waiting
 Paused
End Enum
