can we insert a string into the hashtable object

Hashtable ExpiryRefData;
String icdExpiry;

try {
    ExpiryRefData = CAPSUtil.getRefData(EXPIRY);
    icdExpiry = (String) ExpiryRefData.get(EXPIRY);
}

can any body please explain how we are actually storing the string directly into the ExpiryRefData and how we are retrieving the values in the other string variable

As per code stated here, CAPSUtil.getRefData(EXPIRY) returns a hashtable. Then ExpiryRefData.get(EXPIRY) returns object which is casted to String using (String). For more detils refer CAPSUtil.getRefData(EXPIRY) implementation.

As per java Hashtable reference 

public class Hashtable<K,V>
This class implements a hash table, which maps keys to values.

Any non-null object can be used as a key or as a value.

Don't use a Hashtable. Use a Map<K, String> instead. If you need synchronized access, consider using a synchronized wrapper (refer to java.util.Collections).

(Edit: a Map<String, String> will do. If there is special need aHashMap` is enough.
