How retrieve data from hash table output

[Guvera]

Hi friends,

I am in problem. I am using Asp.Net 2.0 application.I got an output in hash table like

System.Collections.Hashtable
Key: ashok.org
Value:
System.Collections.Hashtable
Key: status
Value:
available
Key: classkey
Value:
domorg

The above hash table output i got it. I want to read this hash table object and i need to get the Key and value both.

I can create hash table object and using IDictionary i can get these Key and Value. But first time i can get Key and write it. Here my Value is in object type and inside I have Key and Value. How can i read the object?? and get the Key and Value inside of Value. Please give me suggestion. Hope yours reply.

hi, Try the follwoing code. this code shows the key and values also.

Hashtable exampleTable = new Hashtable();
            exampleTable.Add("txt", "notepad.exe");
            exampleTable.Add("bmp", "paint.exe");
            exampleTable.Add("dib", "paint.exe");
            exampleTable.Add("rtf", "wordpad.exe");
            foreach (string key in exampleTable.Keys)
            {
                Response.Write(exampleTable[key].ToString(),key);
            }

Good luck.

IDictionaryEnumerator s = hashtable.GetEnumerator();
while (s.MoveNext())
{
MessageBox.Show(s.Key + s.Value.ToString());
}

IDictionaryEnumerator s = hashtable.GetEnumerator();
while (s.MoveNext())
{
MessageBox.Show(s.Key + s.Value.ToString());
}

Hello,

Welcome to the forums! Thanks for taking the time to post in this thread!

One thing I would say though, using MessageBox.Show within an ASP.NET application is not really a recommended best practice. Although it will "work" when you are debugging out of Visual Studio, when you deploy the application onto a server, you will never see the MessageBox appear on the client.
