Is there a way to access properties/methods of an object using string values? For example, to access the Person.Fullname property would it be possible to do the following...

Public Sub MySub()
  ' get fullname...
  Dim name As String = GetProperty(myPerson, "Fullname")
End Sub

Public Function GetProperty(ByVal nObject As Object, _
  ByVal property As String) As Object
Return nObject.property
End Function

The bit I don't know how to do is the 'Return nObject.property', or even if it is possible. Is it?

Thanks in advance

Perhaps the System.Reflection.Binder class will have provide what you need. Though IMHO performing this kind of task sort of defeats the purpose of the nice strongly typed properties that the class provides.
