c++ style #define in c#

[Blacky]

Hi

I used to use #define in c and c++ to do this...
#define Code 1
#define Name 2

then later in program

strCode = List.Items[code];
strName = List.Items[Name];

Then when ever they change around, all I changed was the defines. They would
be change in code before compiling. It was easy and simple and worked very
well with out using any memory or creating unnecessary instances.

No I see in C# that does not work anymore. Is there anything else I can use
that will be done pre-compile? Do not want to make class and then create an
instance. That is just wasting time, and memory.

Thank you very much.

public const int Code = 1;
public const int Name = 2;
