how to change the values of label in listview from codebehind?

Actually i'm developing template using asp.net and c#.
i'm using listview at my ascx page and my ItemTemplate is as below:

<ItemTemplate>
<tr style="background-color:#FFF8DC;color: #000000;">
    <td>
        <asp:Button ID="DeleteButton" runat="server" CommandName="Delete" Text="Delete" CausesValidation="false" OnClientClick="return confirm('Are you sure you want to delete this Product Details?');" />
        <asp:Button ID="EditButton" runat="server" CommandName="Edit" Text="Edit" CausesValidation="True" />
    </td>
    <td>
        <asp:Label ID="EmpIDLabel" runat="server" Text='<%# Eval("EmpID") %>' />
    </td>
    <td>
        <asp:Label ID="EmpNameLabel" runat="server" Text='<%# Eval("EmpName") %>' />
    </td>
    <td>
        <asp:Label ID="DepartmentLabel" runat="server" Text='<%# Eval("Department") %>' />
    </td>
    <td>
        <asp:Label ID="AgeLabel" runat="server" Text='<%# Eval("Age") %>' />
    </td>
    <td>
        <asp:Label ID="AddressLabel" runat="server" Text='<%# Eval("Address") %>' />
    </td>
</tr>
</ItemTemplate>

and i retrieve the data from the database in ascx code behind as bellow:

public DataTable GetEmployee(string query)
{
    SqlConnection con = new SqlConnection(ConfigurationManager.ConnectionStrings["NorthwindConnectionString"].ConnectionString);
    SqlDataAdapter ada = new SqlDataAdapter(query, con);
    DataTable dtEmp = new DataTable();
    ada.Fill(dtEmp);
    return dtEmp;
}

and also i bind the data in ascx code behind as follow:

private void BindLVP(string SortExpression)
{
    string UpdateQuery = "Select * from Employee" + SortExpression;
    SqlConnection con = new SqlConnection(ConfigurationManager.ConnectionStrings["NorthwindConnectionString"].ConnectionString);
    hid_UpdateQTP.Value = UpdateQuery;

    lvProduct.Items.Clear();
    lvProduct.DataSource = GetEmployee(UpdateQuery);
    lvProduct.DataBind();
}

my question is how i can delete the <%# Eval("EmpID") %> and all the other label text like this in ItemTemplate and change the label.text in ItemTemplate from the code behind, i mean pass the data of the database to these label from code behind.
appreciate your consideration.

You should handle the ItemDataBound event of the ListView what is fired for every item after you've bound the ListView to it's DataSource:

protected void LVP_ItemDataBound(object sender, ListViewItemEventArgs e)
{
    if (e.Item.ItemType == ListViewItemType.DataItem)
    {
        Label EmpIDLabel = (Label)e.Item.FindControl("EmpIDLabel");

        System.Data.DataRowView rowView = e.Item.DataItem as System.Data.DataRowView;
        EmpIDLabel.Text = rowView["EmpID"].ToString();
    }
}

This event is not triggered on every postback but only on databinding(unlike the ListView's ItemCreated event).
