Dina, Yes, there are many decent PalmOS development tools that are suitable for novice developers and do not require knowledge of C/C++ and the core PalmOS SDKs. Why not try out several different tools before making your selection -- most have trial or evaluation versions available for that purpose.
A collection of numerous PalmOS development tools is posted on the ACCESS (formerly PalmSource) website, here: http://www.access-company.com/developers/downloads/apptools.html I've not used PDAToolbox before, but I know it has been around for some time. I have used NSBasic, HB++, Pendragon Forms, and of course our own product Satellite Forms, and they each bring a unique set of features and capabilities to the table. Take them all for a spin and find the one that best meets your needs and skillset.
