Userform from a Userform Problem

I have an excel workbook which when opened runs a userform. On this userform
are various commandbuttons which do various things.

One button (commandButton1), hides the current form then opens a userform
called setup, when that userform is closed using 'unload me' in the setup
userform code control passes back to the Command Button 1 click procedure,
the next line of which is to re-show the first userform. This works fine -
no problems.
The code which achieves this little bit is here:

Private Sub CommandButton1_Click()
Me.Hide
Setup.Show
Me.Show
End Sub

The second button does a similar thing but with a different userform. The
closure for this is the same as before (ie an unload me in the code of the
second form). Again this form worked just fine UNTIL ...
I added a control on the second userform (confusingly called userform1).
After adding this one control the userform closes just fine, but the original
form doesnt stay opened. Using debug, I have followed the code through and
it executes corrrectly, including showing the userform again (me.show). But
when it executes the EndSub the form closes.

The code is (except for userform names) identical.
Private Sub CommandButton2_Click()
Me.Hide
UserForm1.Show
Me.Show
End Sub

Why doesnt it work? What can I do about it?
Ive gone back to my original and done it all again in case I had stuffed
something up, but no success.

Its Excel 2003 sp1 running on a Windows 2000 SP 4 server.

Thanks

Adrian,

I couldn't replicate this behaviour, Excel 2002.

What control did you add, and is there anything else that might be relevant.
