How to iterate over the properties of an object in vb.net?

I'm debuging an complex calculation object in my project, and I'd like to show its various and many properties in a textbox, to make my tests easier.

Can I do something like 

for each p as someKindOfProperty in MyObject1
  debug.print(p.name & " - " & debug.print p.value)
  textbox1.text = textbox1.text & vbcrlf & p.name & " - " & p.value
next

???

How?

Dim props As PropertyInfo() = GetType(Color).GetProperties(BindingFlags.[Static] Or BindingFlags.[Public])

For Each prop As PropertyInfo In props
    Dim o As Object = prop.GetValue(Nothing, Nothing)
    If o IsNot Nothing Then
        textbox1.Text = Textbox1.text + Constants.vbcrlf + prop.Name + " - " + o.ToString()
    End If
Next
