paging records in ASP.NET using datareaders

Hi FriendsI am facing a problem. Plz help me to solve my problemThe scenario is as followsI have a ASP.NET page in which listing of records is done. Each record has 8 fields. the records are coming from the stored procedure where i am fetching data from 2 or more table. sometimes the data returned by the stored procedure doesn't have a unique or primary key.i am displaying records in the table (one record per row).also i am using the datareader i.e. connected environment.Now the problem is that, the listing page contains thousands of records after 3 or 4 days of operation at client side. I want to page the records (as done in the google.com). BUT the limitation is that i am not allowed to use DATAGRID, REPEATER, DATALISTand any such control. plus i am not allowed to do any drastic changes in my stored procedures also i am compelled to use datareaders.How can i achieve paging in such situationPlz help meThank You in advance

Why you are compelled to not use these helpful control? Also maybe you need to chnage the stored procedure.

Any suggested change may cost you entire application rebuilding.
