So I know that if I want to have multiple keys in a hash table I do the following:

     hh.DefineKey('Key1', 'Key2');

I also know that if my key in the dataset I'm matching the hash table to has a different name for the key I do the following:

     hh.find(Key: DiffName);

What I'm wondering is if you can combine the two?  Can you have a multiple key lookup and the names in the dataset you are matching to be different for both keys?

Thanks!

NO. But you can use Hiter object to achieve this, but it is low efficient .

Yes, if you mean something like:  hh.find(Key: DiffName1, key:diffname2); Try it out, you will see.
