Diffrence between enum and type

[Mahdi Jazini]

An Enum is meant for if you have unchanging values that are related to each other. Enum's can also only return the following data types: Byte, Integer, Long, SByte, Short, UInteger, ULong, or UShort.

A Type can be thought of the foundation of a programming language. It's the most basic form of a given value.

Oh my God !!!

Where is the Type command in VB.Net ?!!!

Type was a useful command to make user-defined variables in modules and classes...

an example about Type:

'''''''' In Module1 in a Visual Basic 6 Project '''''''''''
Public Type test1
    a1 As String
    a2 As Byte
    a3 As String * 3
    a4 As Integer
End Type
'''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''


'''''''' In Form1 in a Visual Basic 6 Project '''''''''''

Private Sub Form_Load()

    Dim a_final As test1
    
    a_final.a1 = "test"
    a_final.a2 = 2
    a_final.a3 = "ali"
    a_final.a4 = 6536
    
    MsgBox a_final.a1
    MsgBox a_final.a2
    MsgBox a_final.a3
    MsgBox a_final.a4
    
End Sub

'''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''

Is the Enum equivalent of Type in VB.Net ?!
