I have a number of properties which are objects ( business objects )
If I have string which is the same as the name of one of those properties I would like to find the value of a property of the corresponding object.
in VFP
*property is called _Propmaster
varstr = "Propmaster"
prop = "_"+varstr+".count"
mycount = eval(prop)
Looking for a technique that will accomplish the same thing in .NET
vb or C#
TIA

Though a good deal is too strange to be believed, nothing is too strange to have happened.

Half the harm that is done in this world is due to people who want to feel important. They don't mean to do harm-- but the harm does not interest them. Or they do not see it, or they justify it because they are absorbed in the endless struggle to think well of themselves.
-- T. S. Eliot
Democracy is two wolves and a sheep voting on what to have for lunch.
Liberty is a well-armed sheep contesting the vote.
