# Sorted list in CSharp .NET

SortedList represents a collection of key-and-value pairs that are sorted by the keys and are accessible by key and by index.

```
SortedList sl = new SortedList();//creating sorted list.private void btnAdd_Click(object sender, EventArgs e){if (txtValue.Text != "" && txtKey.Text != "")      {        sl.Add(txtKey.Text, txtValue.Text);//adding key and value to sorted list.            txtKey.Text = "";            txtValue.Text = "";      }      else            MessageBox.Show("Text Box Empty");} private void btnDisplay_Click(object sender, EventArgs e){ ICollection ic = sl.Keys;//assigning sortedlist key to ICollection variable.foreach (string str in ic)MessageBox.Show(str + ": " + sl[str]);//executing loop for each key avaliable      }
```
