Remarks
The DeleteCommand event is raised when the Delete button is clicked for an item in the DataGrid control.
A typical handler for the DeleteCommand event removes the selected item from the data source and then rebinds the data to the DataGrid control.
For more information about how to handle events, see Handling and Raising Events.
