On your form1, create a command button. then try this code:
Sub Command1_click()
form1.hide 'closes the form1
form2.show 'loads the form2
End Sub
Hope it could help... ^_^v..

Your main form(Form1) should be MDI Form, then set your form2's MDIChild property TRUE, then do Form2.show without hide or close your Form1.
