AFAIK, I doubt it. You can go for a normal form if you need edit feature.

Lets see what others have to suggest.

What kind of changes/edits are you wanting to allow users to make?

For example I make a Invoice Report after show report Client may able to Made a changes in Amount column of report.

So the user is only changing the data in the report, not the layout like where columns are, etc.?

If the user is going to be changing the data only, then it sounds like a very typical reporting scenario...have you tried reading any of the CP Articles[^] on how Crystal Reports work? Basically you will create a Crystal Report (.rpt file) which just tracks where values are going to go...you then tie it to some sort of data source like a database (Access, SQL Server, etc.) and when the data changes, running the report will show these changes.

Export crystal report to MS-Word, MS-Excel file. User can easly change the text in these file.
