I know it sounds a bit RTFM, but have you tried looking at either of these?  There are some great examples that you can poach from.

Thanks a lot for replying 'stevemo'

I have been thru those docs.

Well, what excatly I need is that I have created a custom object project and it has a custom field project manager (lookup to user) and my approval porcess must be routed to the user specified in the project manager field.  Is that possible to do using SalesForce platform and should I be using apex for this.

kindly plase do suggest me something

I don't have any experience using Apex, so you'll have to ask someone else for that.  

But you can route an Approval to a custom Lookup(User) field, so you should be good-to-go using a standard SFDC Approval Process

When  approval process asks to select approvers select Related user and select the required lookup field
