c# objectdatasource SelectMethod lost on pagination

I am changing the SelectMethod of an objectDataSource from c# code behind when a search function is run on the page.

This works fine and my gridview populates but once i change the page on the gridview it goes back to the old select method. how can i keep it on this select method.

Any ideas?

Thanks.

we need to see your code....where you are setting your SelectMethod...?

The select method is changed when a user enters some info into a text box and presses a button. This then calls a method like

protected void ChangeSelectMethod(object Sender, EventArgs e)
{
MyDataSource.SelectMethod = "MyNewOne"
MyDataSource.DataBind() // do i need to?
GridView1.Bind() // do i need to?
}

This is all well and good and my grid view now has the info in I want but if the user changes page on the gridview then it reverts back to using the original selectmethod.

Any ideas?
which is fine and
