Answer 1

It seems like you are adding 2 parameters here. One declarative and one in your code behind.

Try to add only the parameter in your code behind. also change the name to idd instead of @idd.

<asp:SqlDataSource ID="SqlDataSource1" runat="server" 
        ConnectionString="<%$ ConnectionStrings:igroup20_test2ConnectionString %>" 
        SelectCommand="SELECT * FROM [member] where ([id] = @idd)">
</asp:SqlDataSource>

protected void Page_Load(object sender, EventArgs e)
 {
        SqlDataSource1.SelectParameters.Add("idd", "077763554");
        FormView1.DataBind();
 }

Answer 2

You have two problems:

1. first you don't need to add the parameter again - it's already defined in your markup
2. you don't have to use a @ in your parameter name - just the name will do.

So use this code instead:

protected void Page_Load(object sender, EventArgs e)
{
    SqlDataSource1.SelectParameters["idd"].DefaultValue = "077763554";
    FormView1.DataBind();
}

That should do the trick - set the .DefaultValue on the existing parameter, and use the idd parameter name, as defined in your markup (<asp:Parameter Name="idd" Type="String" />)
