Hi,

If I defined a ENUM in a base object with serveral default values. When I inherit from the base object I want to add more options the the ENUM list which are specific to the inheriting object.

For example my base could have a ENUM called Direction with values:
None
ALL
Stop
Start

I create a new class call Compass which inherits the base class and what to add the following to the ENUM Direction.
North
South
East
West

I create a new class call Navigation which inherits the base class and what to add the following to the ENUM Direction.
Left
Right

So, In my inheriting class haow do I extend the ENUM. I am using VB.NET.
