	try {
		WebObjectSource source = isess.getFactory().getObjectSource();
		WebUser user = (WebUser) source.getObject("54F3D26011D2896560009A8E67019608", EnumDSSXMLObjectTypes.DssXmlTypeUser); //Replace the object with user's UID. 
		user.populate(); // need to call populate method before manipulating the object. 
		
		WebSubscriptionUserAddresses _addresses = user.getAddresses(); //get the current user addresses

		for (int i = 0; i < _addresses.size(); i++) {
			WebSubscriptionAddress addr = _addresses.get(i);
			addr.populate();

			//Set the default address and save for the desired user
			if (addr.getName().equalsIgnoreCase("xyz"))
			{
				_addresses.setDefaultAddress(addr.getID());
				_addresses.saveAddress(addr);
			}
		}
		source.save(user);
