The following code example demonstrates the creation, population and modification of an OrderedDictionary collection, as well as two techniques to display the contents of the OrderedDictionary: one using the Keys and Values properties and the other creating an enumerator through the GetEnumerator method.

Each element is a key/value pair stored in a DictionaryEntry object. A key cannot be null
, but a value can be.
The elements of an OrderedDictionary are not sorted by the key, unlike the elements of a SortedDictionary<TKey,TValue> class. You can access elements either by the key or by the index.
The foreach
statement of the C# language (For Each
in Visual Basic) returns objects that are of the type of each element in the collection. Since each element of the OrderedDictionary collection is a key/value pair, the element type is not the type of the key or the type of the value. Instead, the element type is DictionaryEntry. The following code shows the syntax.
foreach (DictionaryEntry de in myOrderedDictionary)
{
//...
}
For Each de As DictionaryEntry In myOrderedDictionary
'...
Next de
The foreach
statement is a wrapper around the enumerator, which only allows reading from, not writing to, the collection.
