I'm basically looking for a way to access a hashtable value using a two-dimensional typed key in c#. Eventually I would be able to do something like this HashTable[1][false] = 5; int a = HashTable[1][false]; //a = 5 This is what I've been trying...hasn't worked Hashtable test = new Hashtable(); test.Add(new Dictionary<int, bool>() { { 1, true } }, 555); Dictionary<int, bool> temp = new Dictionary<int, bool>() {{1, true}}; string testz = test[temp].ToString();
