Here is the basic situation.
Public Class MyEnumClass(of T)
Public MyValue as T
End Class
This is vast oversimplification of the actual class, but basically I know that T is an enumeration (if it is not then there will be many other problems, and is a logical error made by the programmer)
Basically I want to get the underlying integer value of MyValue.
Using Cint or Ctype, does not work.

To get the value of enum we can simply typecast it to its type. In the first example, the default type is int so we have to typecast it to int. Also, we can get the string value of that enum by using the ToString() method as below.
The idea is to use the Enum. GetValues() method to get an array of the enum constants' values. To get an IEnumerable<T> of all the values in the enum, call Cast<T>() on the array. To get a list, call ToList() after casting.
Use the IntEnum class from the enum module to convert an enum to an integer in Python. You can use the auto() class if the exact value is unimportant. To get a value of an enum member, use the value attribute on the member.
The enum is a default subclass of the generic Enum<T> class, where T represents generic enum type. This is the common base class of all Java language enumeration types. The transformation from enum to a class is done by the Java compiler during compilation. This extension need not be stated explicitly in code.
I was going to use a cool piece of reflection code but just a simple Convert.ToInt32 works great... Forgive my VB I'm a C# guy
Public Function GetEnumInt(Of T)(enumVal As T) As Integer Return Convert.ToInt32(enumVal) End Function I tried this and it worked:
String.Format("{0:d}", MyValue) I know you can do the following to get all the underlying values (I hope my VB syntax is correct... I've been working in C# mostly of late):
Dim intVal As Integer
For Each intVal In [Enum].GetValues(GetType(T))
//intValue is now the enum integer value
Next
That might at least get you started in the right direction.

This also works :
