How to pass a dictionary by reference?

Question

I would like to implement an application that uses a collection - specifically - a dictionary .

I want to instantiate the dictionary with block level scope and have all methods have access to the items in the dictionary.

I am running into some tricky syntax issues - and i was hoping that the combined collective genius of all the programmers here could make really quick work of this problem for me .

passing a dictionary by reference is turning out to be cool .

I'm probably missing something here but to enable all methods in a particular class to have access to a Dictionary just declare it as a private field of that class. If you want all methods in the entire application to have access to it declare it as an internal static field of some global class.
