The Delete method performs only a logical deletion by marking the row as Deleted. Hence when the Dataset batch update is done the row is removed from the datasource.

The Remove method, instead, physically removes the row from the Rows collection. As a result, a row deleted through Remove is not marked for deletion and subsequently not processed during batch update.

The basic rule of the thumb to be followed is this, if the goal of your deletion is removing the row from the data source, then use Delete.
