Headers and Footers

How do you add a header or footer to a form? Also is there a way to add a
header or footer to the datasheet?
Thanks

Form - in the forms design view click View>Form
Header/Footer
Datasheet - don't think you can do that.

How do you add a header or footer to a form?
In design view: View menu: FormHeader/Footer (this is a toggle On/Off
setting)
Also is there a way to add a header or footer to the datasheet?
AFAIK, No, but you can make a continuous form (with a Header/Footer) that
otherwise mimics the look of a datasheet in its Detail section. Drawbacks:
user's won't be able to move columns around, sort, filter, etc., like they
can in datasheets without a lot of extra development work.

In addition to George's good advice, another alternative is to use your
datasheet as a sub form. Place any controls that you would have placed in
the header or footer on the main form instead.
