here is my classes structure

 public class EShip
{
    class Credentials
    {
        private static string _accessKey = "aaa";
        private static string _accessPwd = "xxx";
        private static string _accountNumber = "2222";

        public static string AccessKey
        {
            get { return _accessKey; }
        }

        public static string AccessPassword
        {
            get { return _accessPwd; }
        }

        public static string AccountNumber
        {

EShip.Credentials.AccessKey
EShip.Credentials.AccessPassword

Class Credentials is not public, therefore it's not accessible. Change that and you're able to do:

String key = EShip.Credentials.AccessKey;
