An easy way to bind C++ enums to strings, combo-boxes, list-boxes, arbitrary data structures.
// EnumBinder.cpp : Defines the class behaviors for the application.
//

#include "stdafx.h"
#include "EnumBinderApp.h"
#include "EnumBinderDlg.h"

#ifdef _DEBUG
#define new DEBUG_NEW
#endif


// CEnumBinderApp

BEGIN_MESSAGE_MAP(CEnumBinderApp, CWinApp)
	ON_COMMAND(ID_HELP, CWinApp::OnHelp)
END_MESSAGE_MAP()


// CEnumBinderApp construction

CEnumBinderApp::CEnumBinderApp()
{
	// TODO: add construction code here,
	// Place all significant initialization in InitInstance
}


// The one and only CEnumBinderApp object

CEnumBinderApp theApp;


// CEnumBinderApp initialization

BOOL CEnumBinderApp::InitInstance()
{
	// InitCommonControls() is required on Windows XP if an application
	// manifest specifies use of ComCtl32.dll version 6 or later to enable
	// visual styles.  Otherwise, any window creation will fail.
	InitCommonControls();

	CWinApp::InitInstance();

	AfxEnableControlContainer();

	// Standard initialization
	// If you are not using these features and wish to reduce the size
	// of your final executable, you should remove from the following
	// the specific initialization routines you do not need
	// Change the registry key under which our settings are stored
	// TODO: You should modify this string to be something appropriate
	// such as the name of your company or organization
	SetRegistryKey(_T("Local AppWizard-Generated Applications"));

	CEnumBinderDlg dlg;
	m_pMainWnd = &dlg;
	INT_PTR nResponse = dlg.DoModal();
	if (nResponse == IDOK)
	{
		// TODO: Place code here to handle when the dialog is
		//  dismissed with OK
	}
	else if (nResponse == IDCANCEL)
	{
		// TODO: Place code here to handle when the dialog is
		//  dismissed with Cancel
	}

	// Since the dialog has been closed, return FALSE so that we exit the
	//  application, rather than start the application's message pump.
	return FALSE;

The picture is from September 2006, after picking up a rental car at the airport in Denver, Colorado. I'm smiling in the picture, because I have yet to come to the realization that I just wasted 400 bucks ( because you don't really need a car in downtown Denver - you can just walk everywhere).
