I want to track which character is deleted by the user through Delete or BackSpace Key.

I am handling RichTextBox_ChangedEvent of textbox.

Can I extract the deleted character from TextChangedEventArgs *e.Changes* and if yes How can I do that?

I want to restrict user to from deleting any characters from the TextBox. I want user can delete only two characters ( let's say "(" or ")" )

Please suggest.
