"If I want to edit data, such as change the employee's title on a form"
Have you worked with Access yet? It sounds a bit strange to me. Generally I would say: create table, then perhaps QueryDef based on Table (datasource) and then Use Automatic Creation of Form. It will generate TextBoxes and other Controls (depends on DATA type of the fields).
You can now open the form and EDIT the value by focusing the textboxes and other fields-related controls. When you close the form or move to another Record, the changes will be stored in the table.
I am not sure I have understood your question....
