Enum.GetValues question

hello expert,

i have enum below example since actually, have long list of windows message in enum:

public enum windowsmessages : int{

            ccm_first = 0x2000,
            ccm_last = (ccm_first + 0x200),
            ccm_setbkcolor = (ccm_first + 1),
            ccm_setcolorscheme = (ccm_first + 2),
            ccm_getcolorscheme = (ccm_first + 3),
            ccm_getdroptarget = (ccm_first + 4),
            ccm_setunicodeformat = (ccm_first + 5),
            ccm_getunicodeformat = (ccm_first + 6),
            ccm_setversion = (ccm_first + 0x7),
            ccm_getversion = (ccm_first + 0x8),
            ccm_setnotifywindow = (ccm_first + 0x9),
            ccm_setwindowtheme = (ccm_first + 0xb),
            ccm_dpiscale = (ccm_first + 0xc),
            hdm_getitemcount = (hdm_first + 0),
            hdm_insertitema = (hdm_first + 1)}

then use :

list<windowsmessages> thelist= enum.getvalues(typeof(windowsmessages)).cast<windowsmessages>().tolist();

however, see in thelist, there many item have same string name when use .tostring().

do make wrong?

please advise.

thanks.
