Is there anything like a map or a hashtable in Delphi 6?

Question

Is there any kind of native map implementation in delphi 6 (map keys to values and objects) - the internet has been of no help so far. I just got a delphi project dumped on my, my background is c++ and java, and the previous dev of the delphi project does all the searching linearly.

Thanks.

Depending on your exact needs, you might want to use the TStringList object.
