How can I seek key of dictionary by index value?

Question

How can I get the key of a dictionary by passing the index value?

I'm trying:

If rs.Fields("NM").Value = dictNM.key(0)

that is, I want it to compare to the first key in the dictionary

but I get the error

Compile error: Invalid use of property

I tried googling, but to no avail. I'm hoping this is even possible.

Answer 1

Dictionary.ElementAt(index) works for me. It returns the Key/Value pair at the specified index.

Answer 2

You should be able to use the Keys property:

dictNM.Keys(0)

Edit:
One thing to keep in mind is that the order of the keys is unspecified, see MSDN
