dynamic or static binding?

I have a problem with my class structure.
my base class is abstract and defines an abstract method foo();
my child class extends my abstract class and overrides foo() and
prints out a string from my child class in it. The only problem is,
it isn't printing the string at all, it just shows a blank value. I
know that the string has a value because in a method that is first
defined in my child class, i print it out and it shows up fine. For
some reason, c# run-time engine thinks that the variable being printed
out is being referenced from the base class and doesn't show any value
then. This sounds like static binding to me, but I am not sure.
there is a ton of code and I can put some in if people like, but this
might be something that is very obvious... Any clues? Thanks in
advance,
Jonathan
 
e.... Are you using a reference of type child, not base? You can prove
your
supposition by assigning a valid string value to the variable in the
base class
and executing the code.
