It's been a while since I've been using ASP.NET, so I'm a bit rusty - but I've got a really infuriating problem that seems like it should be really straightforward and I can't get my head around it.
I have an object data source linked to a generic list of objects that have a Name and Source property.  This is working fine:
<asp:ObjectDataSource runat="server" ID="odsNewsSources" SelectMethod="DataSources" TypeName="HCR.Portal.NewsDataSource" /> Then I have a dropdown list that uses this data source:
<asp:DropDownList runat="server" ID="ddlDataSource" DataSourceID="odsNewsSources" DataTextField="Name" DataValueFied="Source" ...
