title: Class-level Static Variable per Instance
body: <p>I'm trying to do the following:</p>
  
  <p>I need a static variable to get a ListItemCollection from a List control (I can do this, but if I don't set it as Shared It's not preserving the values as it should). The thing is that this class is a SharePoint webpart, so I most probably will be using the webpart more than once, and I need this variable to be unique to each webpart, which shared doesn't accomplish.</p>
  
  <p>I tried everything you can imagine. I placed a Static variable within a Sub (shared and not shared), I tried it with Properties (also Shared and not shared)...</p>
  
  <p>Any Ideas are welcome.</p>
  
  <p>Thanks. </p>
