Hi Ian, I think what you are wanting to discover is how to open your Form - the .odt file.
One possibility would be to right click on the .odt file, then choose Send to | Desktop (create shortcut). After that, simply clicking on the shortcut on the Desktop will open the . odt file. No doubt to get the Form working I would expect that you need to also have Base running before you click on the shortcut - you may need to experiment. I tried it on one of my databases. The .odt file opened OK, but I did not do the work to connect it back to the database, (or to my macros), so it didn't do anything. But if you have connected your .odt file to the database, then I think it would work. It's worth a try, if this is what you want to happen.
