Hi,

 I'm having a bit of a problem with inserting an Object into my DB from a DetailsView. I've spent quite a bit of time on this and can't get it so I figure I must be doing something stupid.

I've got a method called for example Insert(MadeUpObject myObject, bool result) which when the user hits "Insert" should be called. I have this selected in my ObjectDataSource as my insert method. It has also populated the insert parameters with the correct parameters for that method:

        <InsertParameters>
            <asp:Parameter Name="myObject" Type="Object" />
            <asp:Parameter Name="result" Type="Object" />
        </InsertParameters>

However when the user hits "Insert" It gives an exception that says "cannot find a non-generic method with the parameters:" and then it lists myObject,result and then all the properties of MadeUpObject.

 I have gotten around this in the past by creating a new method that takes all the properties of MadeUpObject and then creates an object and passes this to my insert, but I noticed when creating the DataSource it does say you can use a method such as Insert(Product p).

So any ideas what could be wrong?

 Thanks in advance

(p.s. I'm using C#)

The method signature should be the same as what you are passing in.

Insert(Object myObject, bool result)
{
   if (myObject != null)
   {
     MadeUpObject _obj = (MadeUpObject) myObject;
   }
}

Try this!

Thanks

The ObjectDataSource require to specify simple Types or a BusinessObject.

The BO must have a public constructor without arguments.

 If you need some help let me know.
