Why can't I retrieve deleted DevExpress Grid rows?

I'm trying to get a list of rows deleted by pressing the '-' button in a Devexpress Grid widget as depicted here. Howe开发者_运维百科ver, doing the following does not return any results

 DataView delrows = new DataView(myTableAdapter.DataView.Table);
 delrows.RowStateFilter = DataViewRowState.Deleted;

What am I doing wrong?

edit: Filtering on Added and Modified rows works fine.

instead of doing as you do now try this:

myTableAdapter.DataView.RowStateFilter = DataViewRowState.Deleted;

of course it's not easy to guess without knowing better your data binding architecture...

Considering that your DevExpress grid is binded to a DataTable (either with or without a DataView):

You can retrieve the deleted rows by using the Select() method of the DataTable. This is not a linq method.

table.Select(null, null, DataViewRowState.Deleted);

The rest of the rows can be retrieved by using

table.Select(null, null, DataViewRowState.CurrentRows);

Just be aware that a row that is added then deleted will not have the deleted flag, but will instead be removed from the rows collection. Such rows would also have a RowState of Detached.
