Default Form Design

I am a complete rookie when it comes to Access but I have managed to create a
database with 2.2 million entries. I would like to design a form using the
Symbol for the company [enter symbol:], the Date, and the Low Rate Price
[enter low rate:]. The problem I am encountering is the low rate as I would
like to be able to use or in the form. I know the info can be provided
by way of a query but with this many entries in the database, a form would be
so much easier rather than opening the query and changing criteria all the
time.

I'm sure you can tell I'm new to this.. I just hope I have explained
properly what I'm trying to do. Any help and assistance would be greatly
appreciated.

Maybe someone else understands this, but im lost? What do you want the form
to show you? And why can't you create controls on the forms that are inserted
in to the query criteria boxes so you never have to open up the query.
