| Cancel | Gets or sets whether the current event (the row deletion) needs to be canceled. |
| ListSourceIndex | Gets the index of the current row in the data source. Inherited from RowDeletedEventArgs. |
| Row | Gets the currently processed row. Inherited from RowDeletedEventArgs. |
| RowHandle | Gets the row handle (id) that identifies the position of the current row in the control. Inherited from RowDeletedEventArgs. |
