Dictonary variable

I want to update the parameter of my dictonary . How can i achieve it? .add adds the value in the dictonary. Is there any update function to update the value of that key in dictonary

Dim params2 As New Dictionary(Of String, String)
params2.Add("Entity_param_db","E001" )

For Each MemberOfList As MemberInfo In Nonstreamproduct
             params2.Add("Entity_param_db",MemberOfList.Member.Name)
             BRApi.Utilities.StartDataMgmtSequence(si,dataMgmtSeq2, params2)
Next

      Thanks for this. I eneded up using removing the key value before iterating next loop and then adding it back.

        Hi, to handle duplicated or non-existing keys, I would suggest you to use a couple of nifty extended dictionary methods available in OneStream: XFGetValue and XFSetValue.

        Dim params As New Dictionary(Of String, String)
        params.XFSetValue("sameKey", "A")
        params.XFSetValue("sameKey", "AB")
        Dim sValue As String = params.XFGetValue("noKey", "defaultValue")
