Well, there are switchboards and there are switchboards.
Which one is yours?

If you are using a self-created unbound form with command buttons,
simply add another command button using the wizard. Under the
Miscellaneous list of available things to do is open a Query.

If your switchboard is the built-in switchboard created by the
Switchboard manager, you can not directly open a query from the
switchboard. You'll need to first create a macro (or code) to open the
query and then using the switchboard manager, set the action to Run
Macro (or Run Code) and set the dialog box to the name of the macro
(or Sub Procedure name).
