(UPDATED) This is a small module which encapsulates VB's HashTable class and allows multiple tables from single calls using an array. Comes with a demonstration app. Current methods are hMake, hAdd, hDel, hFree, hKeys. Any other methods I should expose, please comment :). Happy coding!

Just one thing i noticed whilst playing around with it, in the "hAdd" sub, where it says:
With cHashList(i) If StrComp(sHashName, .sHName, 1) = 0 Then 'We found the table before the: .cHL.Add(sKey, sData) add: If Len(.cHL(sKey)) <> 0 Then .cHL.Remove(sKey) otherwise it causes a "System.ArgumentExceptional" warning and doesn't add the data (because the key already exists). Sorry. (If this comment was disrespectful, please report it.)
In this update, I rewrote the hMake and hFree procedures as mainly the hFree was not working properly and removing 1) the wrong table and if not 2) all of them except the first one as well as causing a first chance exception. Of course, I didn't find these things out until I started using it in a program and found that some tables were being destroyed and some data was not being overwritten on hAdd either. All fixed and working properly now, sorry about that. (If this comment was disrespectful, please report it.)
Keep up the good work Jason. (If this comment was disrespectful, please report it.)
