serialization for hash tables

[kaycee]

I have an instance of the word document. inside this document contains
objects.... to save this i opted to use data caching. but my problems arise
when it tries to serialize hash tables. I keep on getting this error "Cannot
serialize member <object> of type <hashtable> , because it implements
IDictionary."

thanks

Hi Kaycee,
XmlSerialization does not support objects that implement the IDictionary
interface. Either use Binary Serialization or if that is not possible you
can look into the XmlAttributeOverrides class.

A much more detailed explanation of this can be found at:

Hope that helps
