General approach for editing records through a form

Just a general query about the best approach to take for an editing form.

I want to have two separate forms, one for adding a new record (have completed this) and one for choosing and then editing a selected record.

In general terms, what is the best design approach for this type of problem please?

I have seen that people use combo boxes to display a list of records with fields. This seems quite difficult to use. Maybe that's the best way though?

How do you apply an edit button to a selected record in this type of situation? I suppose really I need a box that has a list of records with a little edit button next to each one, or can I do something that launches the edit form as soon as you click on a specific record?

Thanks for any help.

That video was excellent, thanks a lot for the link. I find the Microsoft help pages rather challenging.
