Open you database then go to Tools/Start Up, then in "Display Form/Page" find and select the form you wish to open first.

Or you can use an Autoexec macro. John's suggestion is preferable though.

You know the circle button at the TOP LEFT corner of the Access App?

Click that and click ACCESS OPTIONS > CURRENT DATABASE (on the left of the window that opens) > Select your DISPLAY FORM and click OK
