Sorry, the second point is in the documentation:

DbForms_UserGuide_v1_1_3pr1_pdf.pdf, chapter 7.2, page 65:

Basically, this is all you need to write! This functionality even works
within nested forms. But there is one important configuration issue you
should be aware of: all non-key-fields you want to be sortable should be
declared �sortable� in the XML-config file:

> The following two details are not in dbforms documentation to

> 
> #1] whereClause  --- using this function renders navigation 
> impossible! 
> For instance, if you specify "where n>3" and your user views the page
>   and then clicks the navNext button, the next page may show 
> values where n is not greater than 3.  
>    
> Also, the whereClause can not be used with orderBy or filter 
> attributes. They will be ignored. Order by should be used 
> within the whereClause
> instead:
>  
>  whereClause="WHERE 
>   (FIELD1 >'25' AND FIELD1 <'50' ) OR FIELD2 NOT NULL ORDERBY FIELD7"
> 
> ...So if you want to use navNext/navPrev buttons, you should 
> use orderBy and filter attributes instead of a whereClause
> 
> #2] orderBy  -- if you use a non-primary key, you MUST 
> specify sortable="true" within your dbforms-config.xml file.  
> If you use orderBy with a non primary key and you don't 
> specify that in the config file, then navNext/navPrev buttons 
> will function like navLast/navFirst buttons and you will skip 
> over results.
> 
> If you are following these two rules and still have 
> navigation problems, please let us know so that we can 
> eliminate any bugs in dbforms navigation.
