Well, hashtables are inherently unsorted - they're maps rather than
lists, effectively.

If you could tell us exactly what your situation is and what you want
to do, that would help.

Hi Vidyanand,
Hastables are not sorted. Even more orders of the elements are not
guaranteed to be the same between adding the items.
There is SortedList class which is hashtable-like storage that is kept
sorted by the key values. For more information how it is implemented read
SortedList overview notes
