Sorting a Dictionary<string,Dictionary<string,string>> by the value of the inner Dictionary value using LINQ?

Question

I can't seem to wrap my head around this one. I need to sort a Dictionary by the value of an inner Dictionary using LINQ. Any thoughts?

Answer 1

Do you mean you want all values, sorted by the inner value?

from outerPair in outer
from innerPair in outerPair.Value
orderby innerPair.Value
select new {
    OuterKey = outerPair.Key,
    InnerKey = innerPair.Key,
    Value = innerPair.Value
};
