Answer 1

Also it looks like your comparing by reference instead of content, hence the compare function doesn't work.

change it to use .Equals() instead of == and it should work. example below:

#region IEqualityComparer Members

public bool Equals(Employe x, Employe y)
{
    if (x.fName.Equals(y.fName) && x.lName.Equals(y.lName))
    {
        return true;
    }

    return false;
}

public int GetHashCode(Employe obj)
{
    return obj.GetHashCode();
}

#endregion
