# Enum Statement [VBA]

Define enumerations or non UNO constant groups. An enumeration is a value list that facilitates programming and eases code logic review.

This function or constant is enabled with the statement Option VBASupport 1 placed before the executable program code in a module.

### Syntax:

Enum

Object Statement block

End Enum

## Parameters:

Within a given enumeration, fit together values that logically relate to one another.

### Example:

           Option VBASupport 1
           Private Enum _WindowManager
               W1ND0WS = 1 ' Windows
               OS2PM = 2 ' OS/2 Presentation Manager
               MACINTOSH = 3 ' Macintosh
               MOTIF = 4 ' Motif Window Manager / Unix-like
               OPENLOOK = 5 ' Open Look / Unix-like
           End Enum
           Public Function WindowManager() As Object
               WindowManager = _WindowManager
           End Function ' <library>.<module>.WindowManager.XXX

Enumerated values are rendered to Long datatype. Basic functions are public accessors to enumerations. Enumeration names and value names must be unique within a library and across modules.

## Usage:

Display WindowManager grouped constant values:

           Dim winMgr As Object : winMgr = <library>.<module>.WindowManager
           With winMgr
               Print .MACINTOSH, .MOTIF, .OPENLOOK, .OS2PM, .W1ND0WS
           End With
