This is one of those things I do instinctively in Fox with Eval() or & and don't quite have the hang of yet in .NET



I have a number of private properties of type businesslayer



_Endorsements

_Premises

_GL

_Propmaster





I get a name ( but getting the displayvalue of an enum BOName ) of a business object.



The properties are named _



Now I want to look at the count of the BO based on the string which have representing



Dim varname as String = "_" & MicroFour.StrataFrame.Tools.Common.GetEnumDisplayValue(bo.BOName)



Lets say varname = "PROPMASTER"



Now I want to get the count of whatever BO is in the property which is in the string varname



i.e. Propmaster.count





Fumbling with syntax here. Appreciate any guidance.



TIA

Charles,



I know you want to get a direct access like in VFP EVAL() but I am not sure that can be done in .Net. With the code I gave you you can create a function passing the BO type name, do the loop and return the count, assuming you have less than 50 BOs in the form that should be super fast.
