Private Sub RemoveColumnAtIndex(thisIndex As Integer)
   ' Get the DataColumnCollection from a DataTable in a DataSet.
   Dim columns As DataColumnCollection = _
       DataSet1.Tables("Orders").Columns

   If columns.CanRemove(columns(thisIndex)) Then 
      columns.RemoveAt(thisIndex)
   End If
End Sub

Remarks

If the collection is successfully changed by adding or removing columns, the CollectionChanged event occurs.
