Hi

I have an object with properties and a Save method. The Save method is
not static, so the object has to be instantiated, so I assume the
properties have been populated. Therefore the Save method has no
parameters.

I now want to bind the object to a FormView using the
ObjectDataSource. I have a querystring ID field that is used in the
SelectMethod, which instantiates the object as needed, and that works
fine, populating the formview.

However, the UpdateMethod is a problem. It seems the update function
looks for a Save method with all the properties as parameters. So now
do I need to write & maintain a second Save method? It would be pretty
redundant, as it would need to use the parameters to instantiate the
object (with the ID), update the properties (with the rest), then call
the original Save method. Seems like a total waste. Have I got
something wrong here?

Thanks
Sean
