I use the Palm OS Development Studio 1.2 and it's pretty simple and self 
explaining with it. Beside all the discussions about it I can recommend the 
PODS resource editor when you disable the auto generation of id's. 

Create a form navigation resource. Add a <NAVIGATION_FORM_OBJECT> entry for 
each form object. It's quite self explaining. Below is a navigation resource of 
a simple form. 


<FORM_NAVIGATION_RESOURCE RESOURCE_ID="1900">
        <VERSION> 1 </VERSION>
        <OBJECT_FOCUS> TRUE </OBJECT_FOCUS>
        <APP_FOCUS> FALSE </APP_FOCUS>
        <INITIAL_OBJECT_ID> 1903 </INITIAL_OBJECT_ID>
        <JUMP_OBJECT_ID> 1901 </JUMP_OBJECT_ID>
        <BOTTOMLEFT_OBJECT_ID> 1903 </BOTTOMLEFT_OBJECT_ID>
        <NAVIGATION_FORM_OBJECTS>
                <NAVIGATION_FORM_OBJECT>
                        <OBJECT_ID> 1901 </OBJECT_ID>
                        <ABOVE_OBJECT_ID> 0 </ABOVE_OBJECT_ID>
                        <BELOW_OBJECT_ID> 0 </BELOW_OBJECT_ID>
                        <SKIP_OBJECT> FALSE </SKIP_OBJECT>
                        <FORCE_INTERACTION> FALSE </FORCE_INTERACTION>
                </NAVIGATION_FORM_OBJECT>
                <NAVIGATION_FORM_OBJECT>
                        <OBJECT_ID> 1903 </OBJECT_ID>
                        <ABOVE_OBJECT_ID> 0 </ABOVE_OBJECT_ID>
                        <BELOW_OBJECT_ID> 0 </BELOW_OBJECT_ID>
                        <SKIP_OBJECT> FALSE </SKIP_OBJECT>
                        <FORCE_INTERACTION> FALSE </FORCE_INTERACTION>
                </NAVIGATION_FORM_OBJECT>
        </NAVIGATION_FORM_OBJECTS>
</FORM_NAVIGATION_RESOURCE>
