Ross that’s not true. An enum is simply a shortcut for a value. I believe it’s replaced by the compiler at compile time. There is absolutely no viewstate involved. To test this, disable viewstate and see if enums still work. Of course they do

It should be pointed out that using Enum values will bloat up the ViewState quickly. This is because ASP.Net needs to store the enum’s type information inside the ViewState.
