Access Open Form Criteria

I am new to MS Access and database. What I want to achieve is to get a form pop out every time I open a database file in Access, that the user can select the report generation date range, type of levels of the reports, etc. then the criteria will be sent to the sql server that the access tables/database are linked with to generate the specified report in access.

Where I have problem is the creation part of the MS pop-up form to link with the sql server.

The report will be based on your linked tables and not linked to SQL Server directly.

Having a form open when database starts just means adding it as the Startup form in Tools - Startup.
