In order for you to sort and still have paging, you will need to do the sort server-side. Everytime you click sort, you will need to disable the default client-side sorting, and send the sort request to the server. Paging is built into Flex Data Services (FDS), but it is not a real paging solution, since it still need to get all 10K entries from the database (for example), cache all of that server-side. The only benefit is the network traffic, so you don't have to shove 10K through the network to your clients, but maybe 100s as needed. Then again it might not worth it. For small dataset, client side is much faster and much easier. For super super large dataset, you will kill your server with all the caching.
Best solution i think is using Matt Chotin's Large Data Sets paging solution. You can read it here http://weblogs.macromedia.com/mchotin/archives/2004/03/large_data_sets .cfm. I'm trying to get it to work with Flex 2. If anyone has a solution, it would be super kooo.
