For that you need to use so-called LKID hack or in other words URL hacking. There are many infos about it and even an idea on IdeaExchange: Replace the lkid hack

The workarounf is that you need to know the field ID you want to pre-populate and use this id in the URL string in the link on your corresponding visualforce page.

Take a look at this tutorial for understanding the workaround:
Salesforce URL Hacking to Prepopulate Fields on a Standard Page Layout

Some info about LKID at the Stackexchange Salesforce forum:
What does the 'lkid' URL parameter mean?
