How to delete a row gridview/configure data Source which made from multiple tables .net

I made a gridview which shows

OneAlbumID, Price, Condition, AlbumName.

by using configure data source

which is View, I made on Microsoft SQL

SELECT        dbo.OneAlbum.OneAlbumID, dbo.Albums.AlbumName, dbo.Conditions.Condition, dbo.OneAlbum.Price
FROM            dbo.OneAlbum INNER JOIN
                         dbo.Conditions ON dbo.OneAlbum.ConditionID = dbo.Conditions.ConditionID INNER JOIN
                         dbo.Albums ON dbo.OneAlbum.AlbumID = dbo.Albums.AlbumID

by joing these tables

OneAlbum-------------------------------------------------------------

OneAlbumID Primary key,

Price,

ConditionID Foreign key,

AlbumID Foreign Key

Albums---------------------------------------------------------------------

AlbumID Primary Key,

AlbumName

Condition----------------------------------------------------------------------

ConditionID Primary Key,

Condition

I try to delete a row on this gridview

I made a code on configure data source like this, which is not working

DELETE FROM  [View_OneAlbums] WHERE (OneAlbumID = GridView1.SelectedValue)

the error says

The multi-part identifier "GridView1.SelectedValue" could not be bound. View or function 'View_OneAlbums' is not updatable because the modification affects multiple base tables.

how can I make/design codes to delete a row form this gridview by using Configure Data Source?

First things first, you can't delete records from a DB View, as they are simply a way to visualize data, not meant for editing it.

Second, you need to know exactly what you want to delete and where that data is located within the tables referred in your view.

If you only want to remove that specific row from the GridView (if you phrased your question correctly), Grids have built-in functions to remove certain items from the dataset that was loaded on them. Know that this will only remove from the Grid, not the DB View itself
