How to go back or re-display Userform after hiding it?

I have this code in one command button in UserForm2:

 Private Sub CButton1_Click()
     UserForm1.Show
     Me.Hide
 End Sub

Now, Userform1 is shown.
Then I have another code in one command button in Userform1:

 Private Sub CButton2_Click()
     UserForm2.Show
     Unload Me
 End Sub

This throws up a:

Runtime Error: Form already displayed; can't show modally

How do I do this properly?
How do I go back to the previous Userform after hiding or unloading it?

I think the problem is the order of the statements. I found out by using the debugger that when I had the Show statements before the Hide or Unload, these last are not executed.

Try this

' on UserForm2
Private Sub CommandButton1_Click()
    Me.Hide
    UserForm1.Show
End Sub

' on UserForm1
Private Sub CommandButton1_Click()
    Me.Hide
    UserForm2.Show
End Sub

Change to this:

Private Sub CButton1_Click()
   Me.Hide
   UserForm1.Show
   Unload Me
End Sub

Private Sub CButton2_Click()
   Me.Hide
   UserForm2.Show
   Unload Me
End Sub
