This code example is part of a larger example provided for the Dictionary<TKey, TValue> class.

' Use the Remove method to remove a key/value pair.
outputBlock.Text &= vbLf + "Remove(""doc"")" & vbCrLf
openWith.Remove("doc")

If Not openWith.ContainsKey("doc") Then
   outputBlock.Text &= "Key ""doc"" is not found." & vbCrLf
End If

// Use the Remove method to remove a key/value pair.
outputBlock.Text += "\nRemove(\"doc\")" + "\n";
openWith.Remove("doc");

if (!openWith.ContainsKey("doc"))
{
   outputBlock.Text += "Key \"doc\" is not found." + "\n";
}
