IDictionary::Remove(Object)| Exception | Condition |
|---|---|
| NotSupportedException | The OrderedDictionary collection is read-only. |
| ArgumentNullException | key is nullptr. |
The entries that follow the removed entry move up to occupy the vacated spot and the indexes of the entries that move are also updated.

The following code example demonstrates the modification of an OrderedDictionary collection. In this example, the Remove method is used to remove the entry with the key "keyToDelete" from the OrderedDictionary. This code is part of a larger code example that can be viewed at OrderedDictionary.
// Modifying the OrderedDictionary if (!myOrderedDictionary->IsReadOnly) { // Insert a new key to the beginning of the OrderedDictionary myOrderedDictionary->Insert(0, "insertedKey1", "insertedValue1"); // Modify the value of the entry with the key "testKey2" myOrderedDictionary["testKey2"] = "modifiedValue"; // Remove the last entry from the OrderedDictionary: "testKey3" myOrderedDictionary->RemoveAt(myOrderedDictionary->Count - 1); // Remove the "keyToDelete" entry, if it exists if (myOrderedDictionary->Contains("keyToDelete")) { myOrderedDictionary->Remove("keyToDelete"); } }
