My advice is to always start with the simpler choice - List<T> in this case, and only switch over if you find that you need more performance in that area.

[mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of Russell Collins Sent: Tuesday, July 03, 2007 8:42 AM To: ADVANCED-DOTNET@DISCUSS.DEVELOP.COM Subject: [ADVANCED-DOTNET] List<T> vs HashTable I am trying to determine if I should use a generic List<T> or a HashTable to hold some data objects.

Any feedback would be greatly appreciated. =================================== This list is hosted by DevelopMentor? http://www.develop.com View archives and manage your subscription(s) at http://discuss.develop.com =================================== This list is hosted by DevelopMentor® http://www.develop.com View archives and manage your subscription(s) at http://discuss.develop.com
