Is there a simple way to allow users to scroll through multiple records
without a postback? I am sure this is possible in Javascript, but I am
wondering if an ASP.NET control exists that can provide this functionality.
If not, could someone point me in the right direction? Thanks.
 
Repeater, DataList and DataGrid are the controls for this functionality.
Where are the records stored?

Sorry I wasn't very descriptive of what I want. We have a SQL database that
right now is accessed through MSAccess and a ASP.net page that I have
developed. I don't want to display a "grid" of data, I want to display a
"form" consisting of one record at a time.(Each record has ~ 20 fields) I
want the user to be able to scroll through these records without a post
back. The only way I can think of to do this is either through a complex
custom ASP.net control or using a Javascript array. Basically, I want the
speed of Access with the convenience of an ASP.net page.
 
I would still try the Repeater. Make your form as an item template and
provide some java that will make visible only one record at the time.
