What is an enumeration?

An enumeration represents a fixed value in a macro code’s procedures and functions. Unlike a variable, which temporarily stores a changing data value, enumeration values do not change.

An enumeration groups similar constants together. For example, AddinFilter is an enumeration, yet it contains several constants, including AddinFilterNone and AddinFilterNew. A constant is an instance of an enumeration.
