There are many different approaches to this problem but I would think that a mediator may be your best bet.
1. The main form instantiates a mediator object which receives an object reference of the main form.
2. The mediator object has a property lxPkey for the primary key references. An assign method is associated with this property to send a message back to the initiator object ( primary form ).
3. the mediator object instantiates the secondary form for navigation and preserves an object reference of the secondary form.
4. The secondary form navigates and sets the mediator object lxPkey value as necessary.

It would not be advisable for different form controls to communicate directly ( close coupling) because if a structural change is necessary the design becomes very rigid.
