See here: Transferring information between two forms, Part 2: Child to Parent[^] - it's based around forms, but it's exactly the same process for controls.

You create an event in UserControl1 which the MainWindow handles. When the user clicks the button in UserControl1, you raise the event and the MainWindow Handler does the work with UserControl2.

Insted of grid in this case consider using ContentControl

<ContentControl Name="CC"/>

and for c#

CC.Content = new UserControl2();

So you have MainWindow with UserControl1, and after pressing button on uc1 you open another MW with usc1 and replace it with usc2 in your newly opened window?

private void Button_Click(object sender, RoutedEventArgs e)
{
    MainWindow maingrid = Application.Current.MainWindow as MainWindow;

    if (maingrid.uscholder.Children.Count > 0)
        maingrid.uscholder.Children.Clear();

    maingrid.uscholder.Children.Add(new UserControl2());
}

is this what you want ?
