I'm an ASP .Net newbie and need some help. Does ASP .NET support what I
consider a "structure" or an "associative array"?
I'm look for a data type that will hold a key name and a value such as this
pseudo code below:
Dim EmployeeInfoas (Structure or Associative Array?? What data type
here???)
'Add key and value:
Employee.Add(<key>, <value>)
Employee.Add("FullName","John Smith")
Employee.Add("Phone","555-5555")
'And then be referenced in this type of manner:
response.write("Employee Name: " & Employee("FullName") & "<BR>")
response.write("Phone: " & Employee("Phone"))
'Or maybe there's a "Get" method or something... like Employee.Get("Phone")
and the web page would write out:
Employee Name: John Smith
Phone: 555-5555
The point is I'd like to use a string value to identify an index in an
array, not an integer. Can anyone point me in the right direction here? Is
this even possible? Please advise.
Thanks,
