If you dont find the UINavigationBar on the next class means , it does not have a navigation controller, so before pushing it add a UINavigationController to your next view.

Try like this:

NextViewController *nextViewController=[[NextViewController alloc]initWithNibName:@"NextViewController" bundle:nil];
UINavigationController *navBar=[[UINavigationController alloc]initWithRootViewController:nextViewController];
[self.navigationController presentModalViewController:navBar animated:YES];
[navBar release];
[nextViewController release];

see this stackoverflow question for edit option.

You can simply add a button to navigation bar with ease

self.navigationItem.rightBarButtonItem = [[[UIBarButtonItem alloc] initWithBarButtonSystemItem:UIBarButtonSystemItemAdd target:self action:@selector(editTable)] autorelease];

-(void)editTable{
[tableView setEditing: YES animated: YES];
}

All the best.
