Jaci,
Your questions are very focused on the internal workings of FarCry. The system is really designed so that you don't need to understand these to be productive.

Question 1 - If want to use dmNavigation and the 1NavIDalias how do I call it.
When you say "use it" what do you mean?
You can get access to any object data by instantiating an object and requesting getdata() -- there are also some custom tags in ../fourq/tags that simplify this.
To get access to the tree positional information you need to look at the tree.cfc component -- this is documented here:
http://farcry.daemon.com.au/cfcdoc
Question 2 - Is there documentation somewhere that tells me what's in application scope and request scope. If not how can I find out...where do I look.
The app scope is used to store constants.
You can access factory objects -- cached components if you like -- from here. CFDUMP application.factory to see which one.
You can access navigation aliases from here -- CFDUMP application.navid.
The request scope is used to store the currently invoked content object's data. You can see this by CFDUMP request.stobj inside any template. Note that request.stobj is simply a copy of variables.stobj that makes the data easier to access.
I feel these are really dumb questions...they probably are but I'm left
with no options...I'm on a deadline and I have to make this work.
None of the questions so far have been particularly dumb. We run a three day developer training course that gets people going in FarCry. It's a big solution.
Better to ask less technical questions :) Outline what it is you're trying to achieve -- plenty of folks on the list can help with approach. Less folks can help with the internal workings.
