This question voted #1 because it's an exact dupicate of the same question you posted a few hours before this one at: http://www.codeproject.com/Questions/290065/how-store-in-hash-table-in-csharp.

Richard MacCutchan shows you how to achieve this below, but I want to comment that your code is so confused (and you omit the required upper-case names for .NET keywords), that you really need to get a good basic book on C#, and study what Arrays are, and how they are used. What HashTables are, and how both these data-structures that have been with us since the beginnings of .NET are now often valuably replaced with newer data-strucures like ArrayList, generic Lists, Dictionaries, Tuples, etc.

Solution 1

Try

C#

Object[] m = { "doucument", 13.4 };
System.Collections.Hashtable h = new System.Collections.Hashtable();
h.Add(1, m);

(yes, this is shameless repost).
Don't you see that the OS's attempts are beyond repair; and your formally valid sample won't help because OP apparently does not understand anything about what she/he is doing?

Yes, I did wonder about that, but we get so many code snippets added to questions by people who do not know how copy and paste works that I just assumed it was hurried typing.
