Would it help to use string data for doing I/O to DBF_ENUM fields? That
way you don't need to know the exact ENUM definition (which could change
at runtime even for mbbx.VAL fields); your code just uses the strings
for the states that you need to use, and the IOC does the necessary
conversions automatically.
Just an idea,
