Any thoughts about how best to implement "undo most recent deletion" in a
DataGridView in which the user is allowed to delete rows (but not edit their
contents)?

Is it as simple as stashing a copy of the DataGridView before doing the
deletion, and swapping it back in if the user hits Undo? What is the best
way to store all the data in a DataGridView?

That sounds like the simplest thing that could possibly work, to me. Why not
do that, and see if there are any problems?

OK. I'm a little vague as to how to save a copy of something as complicated
as a DataGridView. It would have to be cloned rather than just assigned to
a variable, wouldn't it? Could I just save its Rows member?
