MII report for MII table maintenance

Question

Hi Experts
My functional consultants want an easy way to update data in bespoke tables within the MII database.
They want to do mass updates. This is so they can run a demo of some interfaces, then reset the MII data to its previous state.
They cannot log on to SQL.
My plan is to enable this using an MII report running an update query/queries.
Has anyone done something similar? Can anyone give an example of an MII report to show table data and then allow the data to be updated in the underlying table (I suppose using an update query, allowing flexible updates)?
Or is there an easier way to enable a user-friendly table maintenance? Has to be something quick to build
Many thanks,       Ben

2. in Web, create irpt with this script
function Selection(){
     var myApplet = document.iGridBatchData;
     var myGridObject = myApplet.getGridObject();
     var rowCount = myGridObject.getSelectedRowCount();
     var txt = "";
     for (i=1; i <=rowCount; i++) {
          var RowNumber = myGridObject.getSelectedRowAt(i);
           txt= txt + "," + myGridObject.getCellValueByName(RowNumber,"DateTime") ;          
     var txtLength = txt.length;
     txt =txt.substring(1, txtLength);
     var SQL = "SELECT * FROM x where DATETIME not in " + "(" + txt + ")";
     document.getElementById('TT1').value=SQL;     
in body
<APPLET NAME="iGridBatchData" CODEBASE="/XMII/Classes" CODE="iGrid" ARCHIVE="illum8.zip" WIDTH="640" HEIGHT="400" TABINDEX=1 MAYSCRIPT>
     <PARAM NAME="QueryTemplate" VALUE="Default/MultipleSelection/TagHistory">
     <PARAM NAME="DisplayTemplate" VALUE="Default/MultipleSelection/GridMultiple">
     <PARAM NAME="SelectionEvent" VALUE="Selection">
</APPLET> </p>
   <input type="text" id="TT1"  class="txtField"  maxlength="400" size="200"> </p>
The answer is something like this
SELECT * FROM x where DATETIME not in (Aug 12, 2011 11:55:01 AM,Aug 12, 2011 11:56:01 AM)
Aug 12, 2011 11:55:01 AM,Aug 12, 2011 11:56:01 AM is from 2 rows selection and it will increate for multiple rows you selected. Now you just need to change the SQL to update statement.
