You cannot set the values of composite fields directly. You will need to set the underlying fields instead (e.g. setting firstname and lastname will change the value of fullname in a Contact).

The following quote from MSDN explains this (though in the context of scripting on forms):

Although you can read the value of the composite value using getValue, you can’t use setValue to change the value of the composite attribute directly; you must set one or more of the attributes referenced by the composite attribute.
