Case insensitive System.Collections.Generic.Dictionary

[pamela fluente]

Hi

I am doing something like:

Dim MiDict As New System.Collections.Generic.Dictionary(Of String,
MyObject)

how should I change the above so that the string comparison (key) is
done using the case insensitive comparer ?

Thanks you

Pamala,
Dim MiDict As New System.Collections.Generic.Dictionary(Of String,
MyObject)(StringComparer.CurrentCultureIgnoreCase)

StringComparer has shared properties both case sensitive & case insensitive
comparisons for the current culture, the invariant culture and ordinal
