Good news. I found the problem. I am posting the solution just in case
others run into the same problem.
POSE with the Palm OS 3.0 debug ROM produces a "Bad Form" error if the
forms for the dialogs have their usable flag set to false (two of my
forms had off usable flags by mistake). I wasn't able to reproduce the
"Bad Form" error on any other version of the Palm OS within POSE.
Thus forms must have their usable bit set to true for FrmDoDialog() to
work properly.
