You can look in Delphi Help Menu about forms and terminating application or closing a form.
There are many ways to create mulitple forms. For a simple way, just create 2 forms, put the buttons you want on each forms.
To show the 2nd form, double click the button on form1 and type this code:
form2.show;

On form2, double click the button you put there and type this code to terminate the application:
form1.close;

When you compile, Delphi will ask to put the forms in the uses clauses, just click Yes.
I suggest you read the explanation on the Help menu about each command/method/procedure you use because they might have implications about what you want or not want the application to do.
Good luck.
