Accessing properties in this style "[xxxx]"

[KevoMee]

I think it involves the IEnumerable interface but I want to be able to access the property names of my class in this style:

class["propertyname"]

where it can return a string, date or number. Any pointers?

Indexers:

Although you must declare the indexer as:

public Object this[ String sPropName]
{
get
{
//check sPropName to see which property must be read and return the result accordingly
}
set
{
// Set codes goes here, same as above only this time set the property.
}
}

The disadvantage is that you must return Object (casting, boxing..)
