Data Repeater Control With SQL Stored Proc as Datasource

I'm just beginning to think about using a data repeater control in my app. VS 2008 and probably moving to 2010 or better. The examples and instructions I have seen all involve binding using an existing data source from Visual Studio and using those columns and drag them on to the form. All of my data for grids, forms, etc. is supplied by stored SQL procs I call from within the app and are [bold]NOT[/bold] in the project. I've looked at the Virtual mode but don't think that is the way to go for me, most of the time I will have 3-6 records to display in the data repeater. It also seems the Virtual mode requires more coding on my part. Is there a way to design the data reader with textboxes, etc. I need without adding the data source to the project and binding in the app? If I do have to add it, how do I manage the data when I move from one master record to another? Any guidance would be helpful.
