These are simply the values for each of member of the enumeration expressed as a hexidecimal (base 16) value, instead of the usual decimal (base 10 ) system we use in everyday life.

&H is a prefix put on a number to indicate it is a hex number.

From MSDN

The compiler normally construes an integer literal to be in the decimal (base 10) number system. You can force an integer literal to be hexadecimal (base 16) with the &H prefix, and you can force it to be octal (base 8) with the &O prefix. The digits following the prefix must be appropriate for the number system. The following table illustrates this.

Number Base Prefix Valid Digit Values Example

Hexadecimal (Base 16) &H 0-9 and A-F &HFFFF

Octal (Base 8) &O 0-7 &077
