    <p>Let's say I have:</p> <pre><code>public class Fruit { public static List&lt;String&gt; Suppliers { get; protected set; } static Fruit() { Suppliers = new List&lt;String&gt;(); Suppliers.Add("Company A"); } } public class Banana : Fruit { static Banana() { Suppliers.Add("Company B"); } } </code></pre> <p>If I just do this in the calling code:</p> <pre><code>foreach(String supplier in Banana.Suppliers) Console.WriteLine(supplier); </code></pre> <p>I get:</p> <ul> <li>Company A</li> </ul> <p>Whereas if I do:</p> <pre><code>Banana b = new Banana(); foreach(String supplier in Banana.Suppliers) Console.WriteLine(supplier); </code></pre> <p>I get (the desired result):</p> <ul> <li>Company A</li> <li>Company B</li> </ul> <p><strong>Edit:</strong> After reading the responses I understand that this won't work.</p> <p>What I want in my production code is a list of values that is common to the type of object and I want to dynamically add different values to that list of strings based on the subtype. (The context is LDAP - all entries have objectClass=top and all user-objects have objectClass=user,top,organizationPerson,person). Guess I have to use an interface or different lists in each subclass or something if no one has a better suggestion?</p>

    3. COI don't think @Josh is questioning the validity of your question, just that you'll probably get better answers if you split the edit off in to its own question, with an appropriate title and without the baggage of the original context.

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.
