String Enums

Is there any way to create a string enum instread of the default integer enum

For example change
Private Enum bcSet
bcDest = 0
bcSource = 1
End Enum

into

Private Enum bcSet
bcDest = "1"
bcSource = "2"
End Enum

I've also see people using constants to simulate string enums:

Class MyStrings
Public Const APersonalName as String = "John"
Public Const ALastName as String = "Smith"
Public Const SaySomethingAnything as String = "42!"
End Class

Haven't dedicated much though to whether it's a good idea or not.
