	Simple question: Once you bind an objectset<T> (in my case T is type Employee) to a datasource via Select etc etc, you no longer have the instance of the objectse<Employee> to reference. Therefore how do we Update the Employee ObjectSet? We cannot just pass the ObjectSet to this event because it no longer exists. Note ObjectDataSource keeps an instance of the object that delivers the Select, Insert, Update and Edit within it for the duration.

	Since the ObjectDataSource doesn't put the object into the viewstate, you need to do some manual work here. You need to put the ObjectSet<T> to the ViewState and do the update of the changes to the persistent object manually. Regards, Christian PS: Sorry for the late reply. I have been on vacation.
