I am using a FormView with an ObjectDataSource. When the save button is clicked, I would like to modify the data bound object before it gets set to the ObjectDataSources Update method.
I tried the FormView's Updating event as well as the Object Data Source's Updating event but I can't figure out how to access the data bound object. FormView.DataItem is null in those events.
Or in other words, I would like to intercept and modify the DataItem before it gets passed to the ObjectDataSource UpdateMethod.
To give a little more detail on why I want to do this, there are some values on the form which can't be databound with the build in functionality. One of the controls is the checkbox list. I am using the DataBinding event to populate the checks, but now I also need a way to update my object to reflect the form values. There are also other controls with similar situations.
