Note

Examples

This XML fragment demonstrates the use of the item element, child element of the enum element, to configure a single choice for an enum. This could represent one choice from a drop-down list in the parameter of a policy setting.

          <item displayName="$(string.displayChoice1)">
            <value>
              <decimal value="1" />
            </value>
            <valueList>
              <item key="Software\Policies\Examples\1" valueName="1">
                <value>
                  <decimal value="3" />
                </value>
              </item>
              <item key="Software\Policies\Examples\2" valueName="2">
                <value>
                  <decimal value="3" />
                </value>
              </item>
            </valueList>
          </item>
