Normally you would specify the form as the Startup Form
(Tools - Startup).

If you want to be able to open different forms from the
command line, you'll have to create a macro for each form.
Each macro's only action would be to open its corresponding
form. Then you can specify which macro to run at startup by
using the /X macroname command line option.
