Let me guess; you're trying to do this:
Hashtable h = new Hashtable ();
h.Item ("foo") = "bar";
object o = h.Item ("foo");
That's the bastardized C#/VB.NET hybrid language syntax. It is not
valid C# syntax. You want:
Hashtable h = new Hashtable ();
h["foo"] = "bar";
object o = h["foo"];
In other words, use (what looks like) an array access syntax instead of
using the Item() property.
Item() is for languages that don't support operator overloading. C#
supports operator overloading, and the array-access modifier is the way
to do what you want.
