Object Datasource and Custom Object
Hey, I have an object datasource that populates a detailsview.  I know how to update the changes using a BLL method like so: public static UpdateUser(string Username, string Surname); However I would like to use the objects update() method ive created that essentially calls: public static UpdateUser(User user); The question is, how do I access the fields that are contained within the details view?  im guessing .FindControl() but i dont have the ID.  the other way I suppose is to itterate through all the controls within in it?  there must be a better way though?

How to access page property (or just controls in it) from a custom DataSource control
Hi, I am currently working on a number of various custom datasource controls. I've found the solution for most problems on the way so far, but now I really got stuck. One of my controls will take a set of various input parameters, similar to the good old SQLDataSource control. One of my parameter classes is supposed to take a value from an arbitrary control on the page. Howevere, it does not seem to be an easy way to access the Page property (from inside this control) on my DataSource control. I need this to use FindControl. When I do so, from inside my "Externa...

How to modify a select paramater of an object datasource control?
Right now I'm accomplishing this by simply modifying the 'DefaultValue' property in my codebehind.  Is there a better approach?Thanks - Wayde  There are several ways. One way is exactly what you said. Another way is to handle the ObjectDataSource's Selecting event and change the parameters in the InputParameters dictionary that's passed in.Thanks,EilonBlog: http://weblogs.asp.net/LeftSlipper/...

5 datasource using one gridview control
Hi: I have a dropdown list, according to user select different item value, such as: male, female, country... then showing the gridview. At the moment, I have 5 gridviews (all have same coloums and format from one table) to show the result (infact using hide and show panels), I feel that is not good way, too many gridviews! I am think using one gridview to show the result according to which item is selected. I feel hard to handle this because it needs binding the datasauce dynamically. How to set the DataSourceID dynamically? it can save a lot of lines of auto generated code...

Controls bound to Datasource
I have a problem, and understand why it is happening but not the best way to fix it.    I have SQLDatasource control with a parameter in its WHERE statement (WHERE ID = @ID).  The parameter's source is a session variable.  Control values on the page are bound to this SQLDatasource during the page load event.  I then have a couple of buttons on the page that change the Session("ID") value in thier click event handler.  When I click a button the page reloads, and while reloading the new Session value is assigned at some point...
