Problem passing a structure and using GetType.

[dcs]

Hi,
Can someone please help. I have a class that contains the following
Structure (called MyStructure) and sub (called MainSub). And this 1st
class inherits a 2nd class that contains a sub called
Get_Values_From _MyStructure. My problem is in sub
Get_Values_From _MyStructure. Since Get_Values_From _MyStructure is
inherited by many different classes, its parameter i_obj_Structure will
contain various Structure definitions. And thats a problem when using
GetType(). I have tried substitutng the code GetType(i_obj_S tructure)
in place of GetType(MyStruc ture) but it didn't work. PLEASE HELP. Thank
you VERY much

Public Structure MyStructure
Public Field1 As String
Public Field2 As Boolean
End Structure 'MyStructure
Public Sub MainSub
Dim l_MyStructure As New MyStructure 'Local Structure
l_MyStructure.F ield1 = "AA"
l_MyStructure.F ield2 = True
Call Get_Values_From _MyStructure(l_ MyStructure)
End Sub 'MainSub
Private Sub Get_Values_From _MyStructure (ByVal i_obj_Structure As
Object)
'-------------------------------------------------------
'-- This works. But Instead of hardcoding MyStructure
'-- in the GetType(MyStruc ture), I need to have the
'-- structure type that is passed in the parameter
'-- i_obj_Structure , since MyStructure willnot always
'-- be used.
'-------------------------------------------------------
Dim l_FieldInfo As Reflection.Fiel dInfo =
GetType(MyStruc ture).GetField( "Field1")
MsgBox("Get value:" & l_FieldInfo.Get Value(i_obj_Str ucture))
End Sub 'Get_Values_Fro m_Record 'Get_Values_Fro m_Structure

I have tried substitutng the code GetType(i_obj_S tructure)
in place of GetType(MyStruc ture) but it didn't work.

Make it i_obj_Structure .GetType()
