There is no simple function call that will do this for you. You have to parse the _Memberdata property yourself to get the Display value.

If the object is selected in the designer, you can use something similar to this to get a list of members and Display values

IF ASELOBJ(a) > 0
   XMLTOCURSOR(a[1]._memberdata)
   BROWSE LAST NOWAIT
ENDIF

If you are trying to parse memberdata for a control that is not instatiated or visible in the designer, you can extract it from the VCX using code similar to this

USE ("myclasslib.vcx") ALIAS myclass IN SELECT("myclass")
LOCATE FOR objname = "myclass" AND EMPTY(parent)
IF FOUND()
  lcMemberData=STREXTRACT(properties,"_memberdata = ",CHR(13))
  IF LEFT(lcMemberData,1) = CHR(1)
    lcMemberData = SUBSTR(lcMemberData,517+8+1)
  ENDIF
  XMLTOCURSOR(lcMemberData)
  BROWSE LAST NOWAIT
ENDIF
USE IN SELECT("myclass")
