Button in Embedded Report
Is it possible to have a functioning button in an embedded report? One per row/record. Due to circumstances, I have an embedded report that facilitates mass input of data. But for things to work...

Andrew,
Yes, it's possible to have a button within an embedded report and it would behave the way you want it to, but from your description it appears that you've turned on the "editable" setting for your report. With that in place, the button won't be accessible unfortunately.
You found the other option I was going to suggest, and that's to place a button to create a child record on the parent form and this should behave the way you want it to. It seems like you're comfortable with setting this up already, but if you want a useful working example, I covered an API_EditRecord version (instead of API_AddRecord like you would need) during our Empower user conference in June.
