For Access 2010/2013:
To assign database-wide keyboard shortcuts:
- Activate the Create tab of the ribbon.
- Click Macro in the Macro & Code group.
- Drag Submacro from the ActionCatalog into the new macro.

- Change the name of the submacro to the code for the keyboard shortcut.
- The Ctrl key is coded as ^, the Alt key as % and the Shift key as +.
- So for example if you want to assign Ctrl+m, name the submacro ^m
- Insert commands into the submacro. In your example, the OpenForm action.
- Set the arguments for the commands as needed.
- If you want to assign other keyboard shortcuts, insert a submacro for each new shortcut.
- When done, save the macro as AutoKeys. This name is obligatory.
