I know I could do this with custom paging but want to know if it can be done with default paging and / or if any one else has done this.

I want certain records to always appear at the top of my datagrid, regardless of what page of data I'm on. (Kind of like those forum threads where the top row is an advertisement.) With custom paging, I would just alter the underlying data to retrieve the current page of data and with extra rows added at the top of the data.

Can this be done with default paging? If so, what would the approach be?

Thanks in advance.
