How to update view model from edit page in MVC3?

I have three models that come together to create one view model, and I would like to be able to edit this view model when I click “edit”. I cannot find a direct example of how this works (anywhere).

I'm not sure if I will go the right way. I can get a view with data. At the moment, I can’t save it.

Any help would be appreciated.

Thank!

Models:

    public class Person
{
    [Key]
    public int Id { get; set; }

    [MaxLength(20)]
    [Required(ErrorMessage = "First name is required.")]
    public string FirstName { get; set; }

    [MaxLength(20)]
    [Required(ErrorMessage = "Last name is required.")]
    public string LastName { get; set; }
    [MaxLength(40)]
    [Required(ErrorMessage = "Email is required.")]
    public string Email { get; set; }
    [MaxLength(20)]
    [DataType(DataType.PhoneNumber)]
    public string Phone { get; set; }

    public bool Active { get; set; }
}


    public class ClientContact
{
    [Key]
    [ForeignKey("Person")]
    public int ClientPersonId { get; set; }
    public int ClientId { get; set; }
    [MaxLength(40)]
    public string Title { get; set; }

    public Person Person { get; set; }
    [ForeignKey("ClientId")]
    public Client Client { get; set; }
}

    public class Client
{
    [Key]
    public int ClientId { get; set; }
    public string Name { get; set; }
    public bool Active {get;set;}

}

View Model:

    public class ClientContactViewModel
{

    private SimplexDB db = new SimplexDB();


    public ClientContactViewModel()
    { 

    }


    public ClientContactViewModel(int id)
    {
        ClientPersonId = id;
        InitializeClientContact();
    }

    public int ClientPersonId { get; set; }


    [Display(Name = "First Name")]
    public string FirstName { get; set; }
    [Display(Name = " Last Name")]
    public string LastName { get; set; }
    [Display(Name = "Title")]
    public string Title { get; set; }
    [Display(Name = "Email Address")]
    public string Email { get; set; }
    [Display(Name = "Phone")]
    public string Phone { get; set; }
    [Display(Name = "Client Name")]
    public int ClientId { get; set; }


    public SelectList Clients
    {
        get
        {
            return new SelectList(db.Clients, "ClientId", "Name");

        }
    }

    private void InitializeClientContact()
    {
        var contact = db.ClientPersons.Include("Person").Where(x => x.ClientPersonId == ClientPersonId).SingleOrDefault();
        if (contact != null)
        {
            FirstName = contact.Person.FirstName;
            LastName = contact.Person.LastName;
            Title = contact.Title;
            Email = contact.Person.Email;
            Phone = contact.Person.Phone;
            ClientId = contact.ClientId;

        }
    }



}

Controller:

                public class ClientContactController : Controller
    {
        private database db = new database();

//
        // GET: /ClientContact/Edit/5

        public ActionResult Edit(int id)
        {
            return View(new ClientContactViewModel(id));
        }

        //
        // POST: /ClientContact/Edit/5

        [HttpPost]
        public ActionResult Edit(ClientContactViewModel model)
        {
            if (ModelState.IsValid)
            {
                db.Entry(model).State = EntityState.Modified;
                db.SaveChanges();
                return RedirectToAction("Index");
            }
            return View(model);
        }
}

I get an error in db.Entry (model) .State ... "The ClientContactViewModel object type is not part of the model for the current context."
