Determine if property exists at runtime?

Is there a clean way of determining if a propery exists in a form/class at
run time? I know I could do something like:

Try
If form/class_property=something Then
'Do exists processing
Else
'Do not exists processing
End if
Catch
End Try

But I am wondering if there is a certain property or something I can use to
check to see if another property exists.

Thanks.

You can do this with reflection. check this out in the Reflection namespace
