hi,

i have created a dictionary object like below. when i trace, it is displaying in different order..

myDict["1"] = {name:"one"};

myDict["2"] = {name:"two"};

myDict["3"] = {name:"three"};

myDict["4"] = {name:"four"};

myDict["5"] = {name:"five"};

for (var key:Object in myDict)

{

trace("key ------- ",myDict[key].name)

}

output

key ------- two

key ------- four

key ------- five

key ------- three

key ------- one

any suggestion on how to get correct order.

Thanks in advance

Consider using an array or so others reply, checked API for in the object properties are not saved in any particular order;

var arr:Array=[{name:"one"},{name:"two"},{name:"three"},{name:"four"},{name:"five"}];

for each(var key:Object in arr)

{

trace("key ------- ",key.name)

}
