This is the string in the value parameter.

SubDicc.Add(“Value”+SubDicc.Count.ToString ,convert.ToDouble( row.Item(4).tostring))

Have you got any solution , how to use dictionary inside dictionary (i have got similar usecase to implement) ?

@RJ_Kadari, Above error is because Cesar Cu is trying to add a value to another dictionary instead of producing a value. i.e Adding a dictionary happens where a value has to be entered.
May I know your complete requirement ?

@RJ_Kadari, Is this entire in a string ? Do you want to add this in a dictionary as a value ?

Can you provide some info on this in detail ??

@RJ_Kadari, Not sure about my suggestion. This can be done by JSON not by dictionary I think.
