Creating a facility to update reports through data inputs

I am working on Access 97 database. I am required to provide a facility to
enable update to reports reports through data inputs. Is it possible to
convert the report from Print preview to Datasheet mode? The aim is to
Timestamp the data entry and then update the additional data after entry. Any
suggestions welcome.
Thanks.

You cannot edit a report in Access.

You can create a continuous form or datasheet that kinda resembles a report.

If another user adds records, you will need to Requery the continuous form
to see those.

Thanks Allen,
Using Requery on the continous form, will it be possible to edit records and
for the updates to be reflected in the final output?
Many thanks.
