Ariel,

If you are using a VB.NET dll, then you can set a reference to
Microsoft.VisualBasic.dll and use the Collection class that is in that
assembly in the same manner as you would in VB. If this is the case, then
you probably should change the code so that it uses an ArrayList, or a
Hashtable (depending on whether or not you use the keys in the Collection).

If this is a Collection from a VB6 dll used in COM interop, then you
will have to take the collection and manually populate an ArrayList or a
Hashtable yourself, depending on your needs.

Hope this helps.
 
Thanks Nicholas!!!!
