Use enum from another class?

[purpleflash]

In C++, I have a nice little header file with 4 #defines...

All I need to do is #include the header.. then I can use the defines all over the place.. all I want to do is use some english-looking text instead of 0, 1, 2, etc.


But in C# I gotta reference it with World. Namespace.File.Class.Somethingelse.gibberish.yadayadayad

why is this so much more difficult???
