I want to change the UpdateMethod of an ODS. I've tried changing it but it keeps going to the method initially defined. The parameters are the same between the two methods.
The docs indicate that you can Set the property and you don't get a compile error.
Any thoughts
Programmatically change UpdateMethod of ObjectDataSource

Have you done exactly as in http://msdn2.microsoft.com/en-us/library/system.web.ui.webcontrols.objectdatasource.updatemethod.aspx
If it does not work please post your code.

I looked at that but it only sets it in the page and doesn't change it in the code behind.
In the page, let's say I have:
<asp:objectdatasource
id="ObjectDataSource2"
runat="server"
updatemethod="UpdateCustomer"
typename="CustomerLogic">
</asp:objectdatasource>
In the code behind, I have:
Protected Sub ContactDetails_ModeChanged(......) Handles ContactDetails.ModeChanged
If ContactDetails.CurrentMode = Editing Then
CustomerDS.UpdateMethod = "UpdateContact"
End If
End Sub
When I click Update in the ContactDetails, it uses UpdateCustomer rather than UpdateContact.

If you place a breakpoint in UpdateCustomer and use the immediate window to read the value of the ObjectDataSource2.UpdateMethod, does it say UpdateCustomer or UpdateContact

Sorry, my bad. ObjectDataSource2 and CustomerDS are the same thing. I just forgot to change it when I cut and paste from the example.
I did place a breakpoint on the line and it fires fine. Set a breakpoint for when it changed. It catches my programmatic change but never catches it reverting back.
