Multiple databinding to a Datalist ASP.net VB or C#

I wanna show some values of variables (about 6) inside item template of a Datalist. let's say if i have 

     Dim A As String = "hello world"

I wanna show that inside the Datalist. Dim A needs to be declared on Page Load or in a method somewhere .. coz the source is the database,so i can't just declare as public const on the top of the page.

I tried this in Datalist but i won't work as expected. 

     <%= a %>

I also tried putting that different places like ItemDataBound or Page init. it won't work if the way i did was wrong.

In the datasource of Datalist is a datatable with other data. So it is like i am having more than one source for Datalist. Is there any way around other than putting that Dim A inside the datatable?

Thanks Lau

Put as a variable in the class (and assign the value in page load if needed)

Public A As string = "hello world"

Then in the DataList template field use:

<%# A %>
