Solution 1

I would get form1 the subscribe to the button click event of form2, either direct or via a custom event of form2. Then in form1 message handler remove the buttons you want.

I presume both forms are modeless

You can subscribe to the Form2 button event in Form1, and just react to it. Since most controls in a form are private by default, you'll probably have to make the button public.

Alternatively, you can post a custom (public) event in Form2 that Form 1 can subscribe to, and fire that event with the appropriate action has happened in Form2.
