    <p>Consider the following code:</p> <pre class="lang-cs prettyprint-override"><code>class Program { static Program() { Program.program1.Value = 5; } static List&lt;Program&gt; values = new List&lt;Program&gt;(); int value; int Value { get { return value; } set { this.value = value; Program.values.Add(this); } } static Program program1 = new Program { value = 1 }; static Program program2 = new Program { value = 2 }; static Program program3 = new Program { value = 3 }; static void Main(string[] args) { if (Program.values.Count == 0) Console.WriteLine("Empty"); foreach (var value in Program.values) Console.WriteLine(value.Value); Console.ReadKey(); } } </code></pre> <p>It prints only the number 5, and if removed the code in the static constructor, it prints "Empty".</p> <p>Is there a way to force static fields to be initialized even whether not used yet?</p> <p>I need to have a static property named Values with returns all instances of the referred type.</p> <p>I tried some variations of this code and some works for some types but doesn't for others.</p> <p>EDIT: THE SAMPLE ABOVE IS BROKEN, TRY THIS ONE:</p> <pre class="lang-cs prettyprint-override"><code>class Subclass&lt;T&gt; { static Subclass() { Values = new List&lt;Subclass&lt;T&gt;&gt;(); } public Subclass() { if (!Values.Any(i =&gt; i.Value.Equals(this.Value))) { Values.Add(this); } } public T Value { get; set; } public static List&lt;Subclass&lt;T&gt;&gt; Values { get; private set; } } class Superclass : Subclass&lt;int&gt; { public static Superclass SuperclassA1 = new Superclass { Value = 1 }; public static Superclass SuperclassA2 = new Superclass { Value = 2 }; public static Superclass SuperclassA3 = new Superclass { Value = 3 }; public static Superclass SuperclassA4 = new Superclass { Value = 4 }; } class Program { static void Main(string[] args) { //Console.WriteLine(Superclass.SuperclassA1); //UNCOMMENT THIS LINE AND IT WORKS foreach (var value in Superclass.Values) { Console.WriteLine(value.Value); } Console.ReadKey(); } } </code></pre>

A row detail

Detail views are divided into sections. All the information in the data section comes from columns in the selected row. The other sections display data from other, related rows.

Related data can be related in a to-one or a to-many fashion. Captions of data related in a to-many fashion link to a list view showing a filtered view of the table.

Try moving around until you find a non-empty to-many entry and click on the label to get to one. You can move back to the root by clicking on the database name in the header.
