How can I clear a business list base collection but not have it put all of the objects in the deleted list? I need to clear the collection and add new items to the collection but cannot just replace the collection because of some binding/sorting issues working with WPF toolkit datagrid.

It doesn't really work that way, so I'm not sure there's an answer.

Certainly you can do DeletedList.Clear() from inside your collection - that'd entirely remove the items that were moved to the DeletedList without actually deleting them from the database.
