1 - From the database window (Left Side of Screen), click on the "Macro"
TAB.
2 - Click "New" (Located in the horizontal bar above).  This will open a new
window.
3 - Click in the action cell, then click the down arrow, to display a list
of all actions that can be performed in Access.
4 - Select "OpenForm" Action.  The function of this action, is to open a
form.
5 - In the panel located just below, Click in the "Form Name" rectangle, and
select teh form you wish to select.
6 - You may want to make this form "read-olny", if this is the case, click
in the "Data Mode" cell, and select "Read Only" from the drop-down list.
