Kevin,

One of the things about statics is that you don't have to instantiate the class in order to use them. In your example, you're showing an instantiation of the class. This is because you haven't actually made your property static, only the private member. Try this instead:

namespace ccGlobals
{
	public class ccGlobals
	{

		private static bool _lHighResolution;
		public static bool lHighResolution
		{
			get {return _lHighResolution ;}
			set {_lHighResolution  = value; }
		}
         }
}

Then you should be able to access it without the need to instantiate:

ccGlobals.lHighResolution = true;
