Try using OrderBy:

C#

List<KeyValuePair<int, string>> myList = new List<KeyValuePair<int, string>>();
myList.Add(new KeyValuePair<int,string>(9, "Nine"));
myList.Add(new KeyValuePair<int,string>(1, "One"));
myList.Add(new KeyValuePair<int,string>(3, "Three"));
myList = myList.OrderBy(kvp => kvp.Key).ToList();
foreach (var kvp in myList) Console.WriteLine("{0}:{1}", kvp.Key, kvp.Value);
myList = myList.OrderBy(kvp => kvp.Value).ToList();
foreach (var kvp in myList) Console.WriteLine("{0}:{1}", kvp.Key, kvp.Value);

You will get:

1:One
3:Three
9:Nine

And

9:Nine
1:One
3:Three

Solution 2

What you mean by Not working ? check out below snippet

C#

var New1 = EmpList.OrderBy(z => z.Age).ToList();

where New1 is a List<employee>.
EmpList is variable of a List<employee>.
z is a variable of Employee type.
