Constant lookup table

I'm trying to build a short constant array (lookup table) into an assembly.
Basically a dictionary of items and their extended meaning. The list is very
short so I don't want to have to have to load it or re-initialize it every
time I want to use it. I can do this with a struct if I use char value[] for
my strings but then can't see the 'table' in the assembly. As soon as I try
to use a managed type like String * or __value enum I get a C3145 : cannot
declare a global or static managed type object or a __gc pointer. Is there
any way of doing this so that the table is exposed in the assembly?
