usercontrol, databind and updating a object data source

**=?Utf-8?B?Sm9l?=** · Aug 1 '08, 08:35 PM

I have a user control that is in a FormView using an ObjectDataSourc e. When
the page renders the form correctly displays the data from the data source.
When I then change data and hit update, my update method gets called, but the
data is unchanged.
