For fetching all the values from hash table in a set use:

Set set = ht.values()

where ht is object of Hashtable

but to get a value corresponding to a key use

Object o = ht.get("key");

and down cast it to required object

Suggestion: best place to ask this question in Java in General forum.

That should be Collection c = ht.values();

values() returns a collection, it's keySet() and entrySet() that return Sets.

Yes that is collection returned by values method.
