Suppose I have several business COM objects that use the same class to perform data services. Is there a way to create the object once and share it among the various business objects? I could set a property on the business object after I instantiate it, but then it wouldn't be stateless. I really don't want to pass the reference in as a parameter to every method. Does anyone do this, or is it typical to create a new data object for each business object? That seems like a waste.

Thanks.
