Pagination without datagrid

I'm working on a website where we're using .Net web services to feed data to a Flash front-end. The site will have a comments section and we want to display 15 or so comments per page with 'back' and 'next' functionalitiy. We'd also like to show the number of pages of comments and highlight the page they're on. The standard stuff that datagrids do so well.

How can this be accomplished without a datagrid?

There's a good page that explains a number of ways to do this using classic ASP. Some of the solutions they implement I can most likely use with .Net.

But I wanted to ask the community. How to paginate without a recordset? Sql Server 2000 back-end, ASP.NET 1.x

Thanks.Why don't you want to use a datagrid?|||We aren't using a DataGrid because our 'front-end' isn't an aspx page it's a Flash application that we're feeding the data to via a webservice.

Correct me if I'm wrong but I don't think a DataGrid is an option with this situation.|||

I see. Sorry, I missed that part. Well, if you are using web services to a flash front end, I would assume that your data isn't going to change very often. I would see about getting your data into a dataset, formatting the output into a cache object with a sqldependancy.

Beyond that, I would have to know a lot more about how your web service interacts with your flash front end.
