Try specifying the ERRSFL keyword at the file level. This prevents the
keyboard locking and also allows the user to scroll through multiple
messages if more than one field is in error.  I don't think, though, that
it allows multiple messages for a single error field. It also won't work if
the message line is not empty.

Have a squint at your look up screens and see if they have ERRSFL
specified. If not, could you post here the DDS for a screen that does not
lock the keyboard?
