SortedList case-insensitive key comparisons Messages   Related Types This message was discovered on microsoft.public.dotnet.languages.csharp. Post a new message to this list... Michael C Hi all, I'm using a SortedList to store data, and want the keys to be compared in case insensitive order, so that mySList["a"] is the same as mySList["A"] I've run across the IComparable interface, but not sure how to implement. Anyone know where I can find more info and samples? Thanks, Michael C., MCDBA Reply to this message...        kids_pro I think you should just use normal Array and then implement IComparer interface There is a sample implementation in MSDN ---- here how they implment it ---- public class MyComparer: IComparer{ public int Comparer(object x, object y){ return(new CaseInsensitiveComparer(x,y)); } } --- here how I used it --- string[] urArray = new string[]{"Come","age","Apple","Go"}; IComparer mc = new MyComparer(); Array.Sort(urArray, mc); I just did it few day ago.
