This may be a stupid question, but please clear me up.

In VBA (Microsoft Access), there is something like "openargs" which can pass arguments from one form to another form. The newly opened form can make use of that open args like...

Dim abc 
abc = me.openargs
'do something with abc
...

Now I'm moving to VS2008 building WPF application in VB.NET environment. I was just wondering if there are any similar functionalities? How?

You can define properties or constructors of your form objects which take parameters. The difference is that WPF is based on .NET, and it's a lot cleaner (VBA is kind of rubbish). You can't pass random arguments, you create defined properties or constructors and have to pass exactly what is required.

You should perhaps buy a basic book on Object Oriented programming.
