I am trying to figure out a way to put key=value pair to a table preferably using InsertItem command.

what I am after is basically:

Code: Select all

table = {
  ["key1"] = "string1",
  ["key2"] = "string2"
           }

Because all Keys are unique, I could do it simply using:

Code: Select all

table[key] = value

But just for style and consistencys sake, i would prefer using InsertItem command for it. Is there any way to do it with it, for i cant figure out a way to do it.

No, you can't. If you look in the documentation before posting you'd see that it's only for arrays. Arrays in Hollywood are just tables with numeric keys only. If you are using a regular table with arbitrary keys it will not work! Try looking at RawSet or else use your own wrapper procedure.
