Hi Eric,
That definitely helps and it makes sense not allowing individual
literals inside an Enum to have its own data type (that is why the type drop
down list is disabled I guess).
As always, thanks for the help.

Subject: Re: [tigerstripe-users] How do one select string type for an
enum artifact?
Hi Phil,
Yes. By default, Enumeration use “int” as the base type.
To change that to be “string”, open the Enumeration (double click
on it from the Explorer), select the “Details” tab on the editor
(at the bottom).
You’ll get to switch between “int” and “String”.
Please note that if you had defined literals as “int” literals, and
then change the base type to be “string”, these literals will be
“in error”. You’ll need to update them by hand.
Hope that helps,
Eric

When creating an Enumeration artifact, the
constant data type selection is grayed out--it has a preselcted "int"
type. User cannot change it.
When creating a constant within Datatype artifact, one can choose either
"int" or "string.
Is it possible to create a string type enum artifact?
Thanks for your help!
