How to list Enum's members

Question

How to list Enum\'s members in code? I have the following Enum:

Public Enum TestEnum As int32
    First = 0
    Second = 2
    Third = 4
    Fourth = 6
End Enum

You need to pass a type, not a value, to the method.

Members = System.Enum.GetNames(GetType(TestEnum))

If you have an instance of your enum you can also use

Members = System.Enum.GetNames(Enum1.GetType())

Though I would recommend the first approach if you know the type you want.
