Indeed, you can't, because someone might add more error codes.
The point of com_err is that you generally don't need to know what the
error codes are.  If you are trying to interpret AFS's error codes, then
link against the appropriate libraries, call the error table
initialization functions, and use error_message to get the messages.  If
you're trying to make up error codes that don't conflict with AFS's, you
should pick a table name of your own that doesn't conflict with anything
else, and use com_err to generate codes in that table.
