When you make a form in windows forms as MDI Parent form then it will have a property called MdiChildren that contains the collections of opened child forms. before opening the second form, you can write the following code to close the first form.

this.MdiChildren[0].Close();

if multiple child forms are available then you need to access this.MdiChildren using a foreach loop and search for Form1 and close it.
