Enums are a form of named constants and as such they follow the same role as for other named constants or variable names.
That is the name must start with a letter or an underscore sign not a number.

[SeaHag]

The underscore doesn't work either.
Any suggestions how I can trick it!

What Joacim is refering to is that you have to create named constants:

Enum MyColors
    RED = 1
    GREE = 2
    BLUE = 3
End Enum

My problem is I work with alot of engineering math,
If I were to name it something else , it would confuse people( me included)

I refer to a 9x25, 8x24 10x36 .... of the Elevator type..
Thats thier name... ? I wouldn`t know how to describe them otherwise

I am suggesting there is no work around?

Just stick a letter in front of it, whats the big deal?
Enum Test
e9x25
e9x34
end enum

It still makes sense and you can tell what it is and it'll work.

[SeaHag]

Fine then.. sheeesh


Thanx everone!

[Edneeis]

Sorry!
