Jump to PostWhen you add the keys, upper case them, and then uppercase the "search" key when retrieving one. Otherwise, you are going to have to loop through the keys yourself using equalsIgnoreCase to find the right key.

Would you care to mention what does your Hashtable contain or do I have to find that out from my crystal ball.

Hi,
Thanks for the reply.
I think its better to convert either to upper or lower case.
