The way I do this sort of thing is to have the custom navigation code encapsulated in a custom control. That custom control adds itself as an object reference to an array when it is instantiated, and then have row navigation code that runs through the array and fires the corresponding object navigation code for every control referenced in the array. Sounds complex, but it is actually much simpler to maintain once you have lots of controls with custom navigation code.
