Should I store Enum ID/values in the database or a C# enumeration?

Question

Say my database tables have columns like UserType, SalesType, etc.

Should I have database tables with UserTypeID, userTy

Answer 1

In my projects, I use my application dbscript to generate C# consts from database, so code always matches db values.

Of course, you only need to have C# enums if your code does something specific depending on the value of the Type field.
