hi,
you can use constants whenever you want something whose value you don't want changed accidently.for e.g. i use a constant to keep track of the path.
if i am at the root level then i store "./" in it. and if i am one folder under the root then i store "../" in it. now as i tend to name variables like this strPath (str for string) i often end up changing the value of strPath to something else in the script. to stop this from happening i use constants
HTH,
Haseeb
