Hi,
is there a way how to add command buttons on datasheet form? I need to
enable users print a specific report from a datasheet form, but there is no
space to add command button to.
Thanks for any advice
 
No, you can't use command buttons on a form in Datasheet view.

Use Continuous form view instead. You can arrange the text boxes side by
side, and place their labels above them in the Form Header section.
 
In datasheet view it is not possible to add buttons. What you can try is
place the trigger to open the report on the double click event of a certain
field. That will work. If you prefer the button than create the datasheet
form as a subform in a dummy form and place the button on the dummyform and
fire the report open action from there.
