Hi Steve, you can't set constants from TS, but you can set register values 
in one TS object, and then reuse that value in other TS objects..
http://typo3.org/documentation/document-library/doc_core_tsref/LOAD_REGISTER-1/

Here's an example

temp.test = LOAD_REGISTER
temp.test.myVar.value = This is a test
temp.test.myOtherVar.field = title


temp.test2 = TEXT
temp.test2.value = {register:myVar}<br>And the title of the page 
is:{register:myOtherVar}
temp.test2.insertData = 1
