title: Declaration of a hashtable with key, value
body: <p>I'm in C# 2.0.</p>
  
  <p>I would like to know if it is possible to declare a <code>Hashtable</code> const initiated with key &amp; values. I know that it is possible with arrays:</p>
  
  <pre><code>public  static string[] ColumnsNames = 
  { "string1", "string2", "string3", "string4"
  , "string5", "string6", "string7" };
  </code></pre>
  
  <p>but how can we do that with Hashtables.</p>
