Removing rows from a WPF datagrid

Question

I have a WPF DataGrid theDataGrid bound to a DataSet ds containing a table. I want to enable the user to remove lines by first selecting them in the grid and then pressing a button (positioned somwhere outside of the datagrid). I finally arrived at the following lines of code which do what I want, but which I consider rather ugly:

  DataSet ds = new DataSet();
        ...
  // fill ds somehow
        ...
  private void ButtonClickHandler(object Sender, RoutedEventArgs e) 
  {
        List<DataRow> theRows = new List<DataRow>();
        for (int i = 0; i < theDataGrid.SelectedItems.Count; ++i)
        {
            // o is only introduced to be able to inspect it during debugging
            Object o = theDataGrid.SelectedItems[i];
            if (o != CollectionView.NewItemPlaceholder)
            {
                DataRowView r = (DataRowView)o;
                theRows.Add(r.Row);
            }
        }
        foreach(DataRow r in theRows) 
        {                
            int k = ds.Tables["producer"].Rows.IndexOf(r);
            // don't remove() but delete() cause of update later on
            ds.Tables[0].Rows[k].Delete();
        }
   }

Is there a better way to do this? E.g. one which needs only one loop and without having to check for the NewItemPlaceHolder explicitly, or possible a more efficient way to access the rows which are to be deleted?

(I already figured out that I must not remove anything from the ds in the first loop, since then theDataGrid.SelectedItems.Count changes everytime the loop is executed...)

In order to remove row selected on button click you can try:

private void ButtonClickHandler(object sender, RoutedEventArgs e)//Remove row selected
     {
      DataRowView dataRow = (DataRowView)dataGridCodes.SelectedItem; //dataRow holds the selection
      dataRow.Delete();                    
     }
