How to return variable type at runtime????????? 1

Hello all,

I would like to know how to return a variable type at runtime in vb .net. I am used to programming in Foxpro and I would do something like:
TYPE(cExpression) which would return the datatype of its contents. If it is an object would return "O", character "C" and so on. Any help would be appreciated.

TIA,
