If you have Solution Explorer open (on the right hand side of environment) you can just double click on the form in the list.
If you havent got Solution Explorer open go to View menu and select it from there, or press CTRL+ALT+L
In the top right is the Solution Explorer, right click on your Form and select View Designer.
When i save my project do i also need to save the form seperatley?
No it should save the form as well - you can tell if a form needs saving as there will be astrisk (*) next to its name in the tab at the top of the screen (if you have the form or its code open).
If in doubt there is a Save All option in the file menu and on the toolbar
