Enum query

If want to create an Enumeration where if I have the number 1,2 or 3 it is enum 1, 3,4 or 5 will be enum 2 and 6 will be enum 3 e.g(psuedo code):

HTML Code:

---

Enum TestResult
  Pass  = 1,2 or 3
  Maybe = 4 or 5
  Screwed = 6
End Enum

or like

Enum TestResult
  Pass  = 1,2,3
  Maybe = 4,5
  Screwed = 6
End Enum

---

How is this implemented?

Thansk In Advance:wave:

You can not give the same name to multiple values, how would the compiler known which of the 3 numbers you wanted to select?

If you just want to get the text back, then heres a method you could use. A little long winded, but I use it all over the place:

Code:

Imports System.ComponentModel

    Enum MyEnum
        <Description("Pass")> Pass1 = 1
        <Description("Pass")> Pass2 = 2
        <Description("Pass")> Pass3 = 3
        <Description("Maybe")> Maybe1 = 4
        <Description("Maybe")> Maybe2 = 5
        <Description("Screwed")> Screwed = 6
    End Enum

    Private Sub ShowMe()

        MessageBox.Show(GetObjectDescription(MyEnum.Pass1))
        MessageBox.Show(GetObjectDescription(MyEnum.Pass3))
        MessageBox.Show(GetObjectDescription(MyEnum.Screwed))

    End Sub

    Private Function GetObjectDescription(ByVal value As Object) As String

        Try
            Dim fieldInfo As Reflection.FieldInfo = value.GetType().GetField(value.ToString())
            Dim attributes() As DescriptionAttribute = DirectCast(fieldInfo.GetCustomAttributes(GetType(DescriptionAttribute), False), DescriptionAttribute())
            Return attributes(0).Description

        Catch ex As Exception
            'Occurs when we attempt to get description of an enum value that does not exist
            Try
                Return value.ToString
            Catch exInner As Exception
                Return "Unknown"
            End Try
        End Try

    End Function
