Hello,
I want to add to Enum the following value :

ABC.12

but I get a compilaction error. How can I include such value in c# enum?

Thanks a lot!

It's not entirely clear whether you want to add the value "ABC.12" to some
enum or that you want to add the value "12" to the enum "ABC", but the
answer is the same: the enum-values should be "identifiers" (if I understand
everything correctly), which means they should contain only letters, digits
and/or underscores ("_"), but should not start with a digit.

You cannot, a dot cannot be part of a symbol. you could use an
alternative like _ (you can not either use ; )
