Add( ) method (Map Collections)

Adds a key-value pair to the collection. The method returns TRUE if the key is added to the map, otherwise it returns FALSE, which means that the key is already in the map according to the equality comparer implementation. The added key must implement Progress.Collections.IHashable, if using the default comparer implementation. The comparer implementation decides if a key object is the same as another one in the collection.
