Answer 1

You are using binding to show your data (DataCollection2) in a list view. Your list view is updated when your data is modified. To delete an item in the ListView, you should remove the corresponding item in the DataCollection2 and the list view will be automatically updated. Make sure that the DataCollection2 is an ObservableCollection instance.
