The GridView.RowDeleted event is raised when a row's Delete button is clicked, but after the System.Web.UI.WebControls.GridView control deletes the row. This enables you to provide an event-handling method that performs a custom routine, such as checking the results of the delete operation, whenever this event occurs.

Raising an event invokes the event handler through a delegate. For more information, see Raising an Event.

The GridView.OnRowDeleted(GridViewDeletedEventArgs) method also allows derived classes to handle the event without attaching a delegate. This is the preferred technique for handling the event in a derived class.
