You will need to create a loop that will iterate through your array and add a new key value pair to your hashtable.

The key will be the item in the array. (The key of your hashtable has to be unique).
You can assign a value of whatever you want to each item in your hashtable. (You can have a duplicate value for a different key).

Here is a quick example.

Hashtable hash = new Hashtable();
int count = 0;
string output = "";
string[] _array = {"Text1", "Text2", "Text3"};
 
foreach(string _text in _array)
{
hash.Add(_text, "Value" + count++);
}
 
IDictionaryEnumerator _enumerator = hash.GetEnumerator();
while(_enumerator.MoveNext())
{
output += _enumerator.Key + " ";
output += _enumerator.Value + "\n";
}
 
Response.Write(output);

This should help.

Seems pretty similar to your other post.
