System Enums?

Are there system-wide enums for such things as the Text Alignment Property?

I'm creating my own textbox activex (... I know, I know everybody has done that). When I add the Alignment property with the wizard, for example, it assigns an integer type. I can change the interface to a more standard drop-down box in the object browser with the following code:

Code:

---

Public Enum myAlignment
  [Left Justify]
  [Right Justify]
  [Center]
End Enum

Public Property Get Alignment() As myAlignment

---

But I'm wondering if there is a system enum such as "vbTextAlignment" that I should use instead. This way if VB10 adds new constants to the property (say, [Justified]) I don't have to go back and change my code.

(Aside: Furthermore, by making two activeX controls, I have to be sure that the Public Enums dont conflict. Hence, I have enums "myTextBoxAlignment" and "myLabelAlignment" in two separate activex controls that define the exact same list of constants... messy)

Any help would be appreciated,

Found a "partial" answer. There is an enum called "AlignmentConstants". You can use it this way...

Code:

---

Public Property Get Alignment() As AlignmentConstants

---

It displays the enum constants as "vbLeftJustify", "vbRightJustify", and "vbCenter"

It's not as pretty as "Left Justify", "Right Justify", and "Center", but it will do.

Anybody have a clue what the enum name is for the second set of constants?

Thanks,
Jeff
