Here\'s my problem. A class which defines an order has a property called PaymentStatus, which is an enum defined like so:

    public en         


        

Answer 1

Parvs solution put me on the right track but I had some minor adjustments.

private string _EnumType;
private EnumType _Type;

//*********************************************
//*********************************************
public string EnumType
{
    get { return _Type.ToString(); }
    set
        {
            _EnumType = value;
            try
            {
                _Type = (EnumType)Enum.Parse(typeof(EnumType), value);     
            }
            catch (Exception)
            {
                _EnumType = "Undefined";
                _Type = [mynamespace].EnumType.Undefined;                  
            }                        
        }
    }
