hi,
could please help me to retrieve properties of a control, i got a
scenario to read all available properties and its current assigned
values for different controls in project. i tried with reflector tool
but it giving properties of classes. I am not sure how to get property
and its value. right now i have open property window for each control
(Properties window) and noting down from a-z properties and its values.
could you help me to get programmatically all properties and its value?

Given a texbox and a button.

Imports System.Reflection
Partial Class _Default
    Inherits System.Web.UI.Page
    Protected Sub Button1_Click(ByVal sender As Object, ByVal e As
System.EventArgs) Handles Button1.Click
        Dump(TextBox1)
    End Sub
    Private Sub Dump(ByVal o As Object)
        Dim t As Type = o.GetType
        For Each mi As MemberInfo In t.GetMembers
            If mi.MemberType = MemberTypes.Property Then
                Dim prop As Object = t.InvokeMember(mi.Name,
BindingFlags.GetProperty, Nothing, o, Nothing, Nothing)
                Try
                    Response.Write(mi.Name & "=" & prop.ToString &
"<br>")
                Catch ex As Exception
                End Try
            End If
        Next
    End Sub
End Class
