Using a variable in an expression

Derek Martin

Dim what As String = InputBox("What property do you want to get?",
"Requested Property")
RichTextBox1.AppendText(PersonList.getpersonbyuser name(usernametextbox.Text)
..{what.ToString}.ToString)

How can I do this???? (or is it not possible)

Thanks,
Derek

I agree absolutely, this is more for testing purposes so that I can write
some code to pass into a generalized function that returns 'object
attribute' based on what is passed in.
:-)
Many thanks to you both!
