Convert From Custom List to List of String
- by Paul Johnson
Hi all I have the following code:
Public Shared Function ConvertToString(ByVal list As IList) As String
Dim strBuilder = New System.Text.StringBuilder()
Dim item As Object
For Each item In list
strBuilder.Append(obj.ToString())
strBuilder.Append(",")
Next
Return strBuilder.ToString(strBuilder.Length - 1)
End Function
The intention is to convert an IList of custom objects to a string equivalent comprising each element in the Ilist. Unfortunately I can't seem to find a way to get the underlying data of the custom object, and of course as in the above example, using object simply gives me a string of types definitions, rather than access to the underlying data. Any assistance much appreciated.
Paul.
